Great video! So I have a 2016 ram 1500 with a po456 code. When I go to start it there is a very high rev then idles down with no fuel smell So I scanned the code with a small scanner from autozone that suggest the canister purge valve im not sure how accurate this is. Before changing it what are the chances that it is the leak detection pump?
@thewiz807319 күн бұрын
It's possible I suppose. It does sound like more of an actual vac leak. Have you check your vac lines? I suppose a bad gas cap could cause this issue as well especially if you are noticing the issue mostly after filling up.

I have had the small evap leak code for a little bit. I did the new gas cap from dealer (rip off price) and pulled the battery cable for a few minutes. That removed the cel but on my scanner it still shows as permanent code po456 even though I have cleared codes from my scanner and pulled battery and my cel has not come back on yet. I might be going under to check these two items now

Hey Norma, this can be a frustrating chase for sure. Have you checked your lines underneath, replaced your fuel cap with a new oem fuel cap. Also, topping off your fuel tank can cause that sensor to fail again and again.

Do you have to clear the code for the gas cap light to go off? or will it go off on its own?
@thewiz8073 Жыл бұрын
If you disconnect the negative battery cable for 20 minutes it should clear the code. If the code comes back after roughly 50 to 100 miles of driving then that wasn't the issue. If you don't clear the code it will just take time for the computer to realize the issue is no longer and should clear on its own.

@thewiz80732 жыл бұрын
@@jessrodzz It's called a Fuel Vapor leak detection pump. You may also want to change the purge solenoid which is at the other end of the system under the hood. Both very simple if you are mechanically inclined. It is advised to always disconnect the negative side of the battery cable prior to doing work on the fuel system and always wear standard protective gear. One reason the leak detection pum can fail is from topping off while fueling. Don't top off if you have been, it puts pressure on the valve according to the mechanic at my local dealer.

The problem may not go away instantly after repair because the computer will need time to decide that there us no longer a problem. The way around it is to disconnect the battery for 20 mins and then reconnect. If the problem is truly gone the light won't come back on. Do you know if it's had to to reset, or if they disconnected the battery. Just a thought.

@thewiz80733 жыл бұрын
The leak detection pump, also known as the EVAP system integrity module (ESIM) is generally located at the rear of the fuel tank on top of the tank. Not sure if this is the correct model for your year but it will look similar to this. www.summitracing.com/parts/MOP-04861962AB. Is it OK to drive? If this is all it is then yes it's probably fine, but I can't really make that determination for you. You can go to Autozone and have them pull the code that is causing the error and then you'll have a better idea of what the actual problem is. But, being a RAM and the gas cap light, it's likely that it's one or the other. Hope this helps.

My 2007 is doing this. We have inspections here in my city and I failed because of it. I changed the gas cap and it still came back on. I'm going to look underneath it in the am to see if that cord is unhooked (hopefully the 2007-2017 model is slightly the same under there). One dealership "fixed" the problem and the light came back on so then I took it to Dodge and they said I need a new tank because of the line going to the tank. They said they can't repair the line because the tank and the line is one solid piece, but get this,,,,, that's what the dealership before them worked on. Idk who's lying so I'm trying to figure it out for myself. Thanks for this info.

Definately get another opinion from an independent mechanic.
