This is a Service News article

Got a vehicle with DTC P2422 (EVAP canister vent shut valve close malfunction)? A blockage in the EVAP
canister vent system is the likely culprit. It can slow down the venting process, causing this DTC to set.
The most commonly reported blockage—oddly enough—is a yellow sac spider’s nest in the hose, the
fitting, or both, that connects the canister vent to atmosphere. Some vehicles terminate the vent into the

frame; other vehicles don’t.

The canister is in front of the gas tank area

pretty simple, like 5 tubes and 6 screws and pop off pins. as i was removing the cannister i noticed a tube with no clamp was off. i put it back in and reset the batttery and no CEL light any more. im good now
