wombatsauce Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I have a friend with a '93 Legacy and it won't pass smog. The technician said it spit out the message of "error code 35 control purge solenoid valve...solenoid valve inoperable" but I have not been able to find any info on this and the shop didn't have any ideas. Anyone know? Thanks in advance!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Hi. The troubleshooting chart is pretty straightforward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnuman Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) This almost always points to a bad purge control solenoid. Call Jason at 1stsubaruparts.com ((866)528-5282 ) and get a new one. It is also fairly easy to replace. It lives under the intake manifold, on the passenger side. Hey, I just noticed that you are fairly near me. If you want help installing it, I can do that as well. . . PM me and I'll give you a number to call.

screwbaru2 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 On the new gens its one bolt one elec. connector and 1 or 2 hoses. Really easy to remove and install. You may want to remove some of the air intake ducting and the IAC hose for access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
