Dorman 911-511 Vapor Canister Vent Solenoid
Dorman 911-511 Vapor Canister Vent Solenoid
The Dorman 911-511 vapor canister vent solenoid is a specific-fit replacement for evaporative emissions system service on select Nissan and INFINITI vehicles. Built with plastic and metal housing materials and a green finish, it is engineered to restore proper vent control when the original valve is no longer operating correctly.
Key Features
- Specific-fit vapor canister vent solenoid for direct application matching
- 2 connector terminals with 2-blade configuration
- Plastic and metal housing for durability in emissions-system service
- Green finish for easy visual identification during repair
- 0.29 in vacuum connector diameter
- Replacement valve for evaporative emissions vent control
Application Details
Compatible with select Nissan Xterra, Altima, Frontier, Pathfinder, Maxima, Pickup, and 240SX models, plus INFINITI G20, Q45, QX4, I30, and other listed applications. This Dorman 911-511 part is used in vacuum delay valve assembly service and is cross-referenced to Standard Ignition CVS84 for the same application.
When the vapor canister vent solenoid fails, the evaporative emissions system may not vent correctly and the check engine light can illuminate. Replacing the valve with the correct Dorman 911-511 helps restore normal system operation on supported Nissan and INFINITI platforms.
What It Helps Address
- Check engine light related to evaporative emissions faults
- Improper vapor canister venting
- Faulty vacuum delay valve assembly operation
- Emissions-system drivability concerns tied to vent control
- Replacement needs for worn or damaged vent solenoid hardware
Installation Notes
Use the vehicle’s original connector and vacuum routing as a reference before installation. This part has no installation note listed in the product data, so verify connector style, terminal layout, and vacuum connector diameter before replacement. Confirm the application against the vehicle’s emissions configuration, especially on Nissan Xterra, Altima, and Pathfinder models.
Quality Assurance
