Here is a very inexpensive scanner that a viewer used to clear the codes after installing the purge valve: https://amzn.to/3QY5fj7

0:00 reading the code
0:27 general purge valve location
1:00 removing engine cover
1:27 removing the intake boot and resonator
2:28 disconnecting the valve
4:30 testing the old valve to verify it's the bad part
5:40 new valve ready to install
5:58 installing and connecting the new valve
5:45 running great!

The code can be deleted with any scanner after the new one is installed.
