Just went to my local garage to see why my "Services engine soon" light was on. The code was 1491, anyone know what that is on a 2003 pathfinder SE?

Thanks

"vacuum cut bypass valve" stolen from a competing nissan forum

"well, first of all you will need a rack or be able to get underneath your car. then find the evap system, itll look like a few solenoids and a bunch of small hoses towards the back, either right behind your fuel tank or close to it somewhere. then youll have to look at anything faulty, like mud on a vent valve, a cut or pinched hose, something like that. if you see nothing then you may have to take it to a new york certified repair technician. he should be able to diagnose it for you."

I replaced the vacuum cut bypass valve, I replaced the bypass valve solenoid, I replaced the evap check valve solenoid, and I took it to the dealer, and they reset the code, and said it was nothing. It's now back on, and I don't know what to do with it. Is it the charcoal evap canister? I'm loosing hope here so PLEASE HELP!!!
