Hey guys, I keep getting this check engine light.

Check engine pops up as P2418 Evaporative emission system switching valve control circuit open.

I procedeed by replacing the purge valve and it keeps coming back after a few days of driving. I checked gas cap and also cleaned my DMTL pump because she also gave me a code but since I cleaned it never came back.

Any of you have any ideas of what it might be? The valve is new...

The issue was with a cut wire behind the back wheel well. The wire between the evaporative pump which is at the back of the car, drivers side. I took the wheel well off and checked the wires to realize that the plastic rubbed and exposed the wires. Being behind the wheel, dirt, salt and water got to it and completely ate the wires.

Redid the wiring and it fixed the problem. Replaced that valve for nothing in the end...
