Default P0445

I just checked the check engine light that just turned on on my car at autozone. They got a P0445 and P1000 which I have no idea what that means. The P0445 is bothering me a bit since I need to get my inspection done.

What is the best approach to diagnose this? Is there any diagram available that shows where each part is and how to get to it? I'm afraid I'll have to go through all the hoses and tubes to see any crack or hole.

Another question would be, to reset the computer and see if it comes back or not?

possible sticking evapp valve, the p0445 says EVAPP valve circuit short circuit, so I'd be looking there. I'll try and dig a picture out of the part when I'm next with my car.

I'd try clearing it, the p1000 is a 'nothing to worry about' code car's just ready to test the emissions circuit.....
