Default P1415, pics of Check Valve...replace your valves :)

I threw a P1415 and finally got around to ordering a new check valve for my P1415 code. While doing my brakes I got around to pulling the drivers side valve and replacing it with an oem check valve I got off of amazon. Btw they are about $25 if you get them on the web or like nearly 40-50 from a dealer. Unfortunately Advance doesn't carry them anymore and Autozone has to order some other brand of them.

My valve was seriously nasty on the inside and actually had more crud inside but some fell out when I pulled the valve out. Below is what the inside of your check valve might look like

my code

the new one is on the right

new on right again

I'm not sure if this has cured the check engine light because a full drive cycle hasn't been completed but I will update when it clears.
