Dorman 911-104 Vapor Canister Vent Solenoid

Dorman 911-104 Vapor Canister Vent Solenoid

The Dorman 911-104 vapor canister vent solenoid is a specific-fit replacement for vehicles with evaporative emissions system concerns. Built with plastic and metal housing materials and a 2-blade, 2-connector configuration, it is engineered to restore proper vent control in the EVAP system.

For Ford Ranger, Ford F-150, Ford Explorer, Ford Taurus, and related Lincoln and Mercury applications, this vent solenoid addresses a common emissions fault point that can trigger the check engine light. The Dorman 911-104 is a direct replacement for the original-style valve used on many 1997-2006 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury models.

Key Features

• Specific-fit vapor canister vent solenoid for EVAP system service
• Plastic and metal housing construction for durability
• 2 connector terminals with 2-blade configuration
• 1/2 in vacuum connector diameter
• Direct replacement for select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles
• Cross-references Standard Ignition CVS15 and OE-style part numbers including F7DZ9F945AA and PV505

Detailed Description

This vapor canister vent solenoid controls airflow in the evaporative emissions system, helping the vehicle manage fuel vapor routing and sealing during system operation. When the original valve sticks, leaks, or fails electrically, the EVAP system can set a fault and illuminate the engine light. Dorman 911-104 is built to match the original fit and connection style for service on applications such as 1998-2005 Ford Ranger, 2000-2003 Ford F-150, 2002-2003 Ford Explorer, 1997-2003 Ford Taurus, and 1997-2004 Lincoln Town Car.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition CVS15 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Check engine light caused by a failed vapor canister vent solenoid
• EVAP system leak or vent control fault
• Sticking or non-responsive emissions vent valve
• Improper vapor sealing during evaporative emissions testing
• Loss of correct vent operation in Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury EVAP systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, vacuum port size, and vehicle application before installation. This part uses a 2-blade connector arrangement and a 1/2 in vacuum connector diameter, so matching the original configuration is important for proper fitment. Confirm the exact model year and engine/emissions setup for vehicles such as Ford Ranger, Ford Explorer, Ford F-150, and Mercury Grand Marquis before replacing the valve.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures this replacement valve with quality materials to support durable operation of the vehicle’s evaporative emissions system. The part is engineered as a specific-fit replacement for the listed applications.
