EGR Valve on '01 cherokee
Getting the annoying p0455 code and was looking for an EGR valve. Cant find it. Am i dumb or blind? I will check the vaccum hoses to gas tank tommorro. Recently had AC redone along with Radiator. The AC was completely redone, so im thinking they messed up a vaccum line or something. I looked in haynes manual but the diagrams are wrong. Anyone help with diagrams of vaccum lines, and or location of egr valve? Thank you all.

No EGR on the 242ci, 1991-2006. It was done with "exhaust gas reversion" instead.
I didn't see that code on my list - I'll have to look it up. What definition are you using for troubleshooting? From what I'm seeing, P0455 is an EVAP code, not an EGR code.
This means that it's a fault or leak in your evapourative emissions control system - the system that controls the dispersion of hydrocarbons from your fuel tank and associated systems. Check the fuel supply/return lines, the fuel vapour line, and the evapourative emissions charcoal cannister and associated lines (the EVAP cannister usually looks like a middlin-sized coffee can with two or three vacuum lines atop it, but it can also be a rectangular cannister instead.)
