[SIR Philbutt]

swmbo Renault Scenic keeps getting this error code and have searched t'interweb and found how to fault find etc but cannot find any info on where the dammed thing is 

Anyone have an idea or even a picture 

Thanks

It means you have something wrong with your emissions.

Check the hose that goes from the Evap Valve (usually a round plastic valve) to Throttle body. Maybe it is too soft and when there is a vacuum it cloggs.

Thanks dbug that is where I originally got my info from. 

My reading of this is that it is for removing vapours from the petrol tank and the ecu is not seing a response from the solenoid as there are no other error codes. It has just happened again when the petrol light came on 

I just want to know where it might be so I can fault find. Dont even know what to look for ? is it under bonnet or near tank or under wheel arch (one suggestion on google search but could not see anything).

probably a break in the loom somewhere. The ECU will only check for a resistance in the wiring. It'll not be able to tell if the valve is working.

there will be a small-bore hose coming out of the inlet manifold to the valve. Go for a valve screwed to either the manifold or on the bulkhead or inner wheelhouse.
