If I were you I would check all electrical plugs in that area for corrosion inside them... Look for a turquoise/blue color "crud" around the metal parts.. That's an indication of a bad connection. If you find any clean/scrape... the crud down to shiny metal. and apply silicon spray/grease to the cleaned area to keep the moisture out.
I have read also about possible activated carbon pieces from the canister getting loose and up into the hose connections causing blockage so the CCV could not release the system pressure.
