Evap Fault-Where is it located?

I got a flash code 903-Evap Canister vent control valve circuit fault. Has anyone got this before and knows what the problem is? Or does anyone know where the canister is located, I dont see it, so i can test the valve?

Thanks

The EVAP canister is near your left rear tire. The valve itself is on the canister where the vent hose enters. Possible code causes include, Harness or Connectors, the Canister Vent itself, the EVAP Control System Pressure Sensor, A blocked Tube to the Valve, or Water Separator. The valve is easy to check. Unhook it and you should be able to blow through it. Apply 12V to the two terminals and you should not be able to blow through it. The pressure sensor is mounted on a bracket near the canister. Recognize it by 1 hose connector and 1 wire harness connector. If the valve and hose checks out you'll need a multimeter and a manual to test the harness and the pressure sensor.
