    Advance Auto was kind enough to read my trouble codes and came up with the
    solinoid valve problem. Anyone know its location on the vehicle and if it
    needs to be replaced or just fixed? Anyone have similar glitches? TIA

    Right on top of the evap canister, of course.

    Care to give the actual error code? Or is that a secret?

    Actually there was no error code per se. The device/reader the Advance Auto
    guy used just spelled out "Evap solinoid valve stuck shut".
    Thanks for your input.

    No such error code text. Don't know what kind of reader he's using, but
    that text is not in Honda's official documentation.

    There are several solenoids. The closest error I can come up with is:
    P2422 EVAP System Vent Shut Valve Close Malfunction.
    There's also:
    P0497 EVAP Low Purge Flow.

    Have your dealer look up TSB # 03-040. It describes your exact problem.
