Thank you brother My 2014 Ram 2500 with the 6.4 has the same issue. I used to have a 2010 Ram 1500 which had the same issue. I have a lot of gas caps 😂 if anyone needs one. Thank you again.

Watched your video - ordered this part - installed in 13mis - $22….Ram dealer wanted $330. Your camera angles were the best on YT…Thank you!

[@thebobcatinthewoods7440]

I replaced this part on my wife’s 2012 Ram that was throwing the P0441, P0455, P0456 and P0457 codes with check engine light and loose gas cap warning. Fixed them all and the truck passed CA smog a couple days later. Thanks for the vid

Thank u thank u. My issue went. From. $600 to. Literally $15. Dollars. Thank u. Ur video is awesome. Thanks

[@davidmarin175]

Went to the dealership to get my truck checked for the engine light and asked me if I wanted it fixed for $330! You saved me from wasting money on a simple fix. Thank you!!

The dealership is insane they will intentionally damage your car so you have to come back it is not a myth it’s true! ℹ️

I sued Dodge of Burnsville for $12,000 over them destroying my hemi after they replaced it I sued them even after they put a brand new motor in the car I still got a lawyer

[@Supernaut710]

Same here! 2015 Ram1500 and they wanted $400 plus an extra $200 for the diagnostic

[@paperpeng1]

Dodge of Burnsville is Horse shit! If that’s the same one in MN! They did my oil change and didn’t put on the filter tightly I had oil drip everywhere and they said it wasn’t their fault, cmon man it’s a freaking oil change only man! Smh

Saved me a ton of time and cost. Nailed it the first time and took like 10 minutes. Y’all rock!!! Thank you!

[@DJCr8tive]

Thanks for this video. Dealer wanted to charge me $175 to check my truck. I went and bought the part, didn't need to clear code, codes cleared on their own. Thank you so much.

[@dexterjackson27]

So I followed your instructions, and it was as simple as you said. It was easier for me to drop my spare tire and install the sensor from the back; it gave me a clear view and is much easier than working on your back sight unseen.

[@jbandersoninspection]

Replaced this today and it worked great. No more lights!

[@LightZone9]

Thank you for the video. I just replaced the Evap Emissions System Leak Detection Pump on my 2015 Ram 1500 3.0 V6 and it solved my check gas cap/check engine light issue. $40 and 40 minutes. Your instructional video gave me the information I needed to get the job done right the first time. I did loosen the heat shield and moved it out of the way to make more room and an easier install.

[@johnnnyjsstuff4815]

This worked perfect for me. I have a 2015 RAM 1500 Outdoorsman with the V6 3.6L and this was the right part and procedure. I also had the service engine light on as well as the gas cap light, so once I installed this and the gas cap light turned off I then removed the negative battery cable for around a half an hour and that got the service engine light to turn off also.

[@robertwood9328]

Excellent explanation and solution for the cap leak /check engine light!!!

[@brianb4390]

Thanks for the video, dealership just fixed my fuel guage/float sensor that was out when I bought it. Got it back and had fuel cap light & message, watched this video and crawled under my truck and they re-connected the hose but forgot to plug it in! Problem solved & message cleared 👍💪TY AGAIN 🙏🇺🇲

[@juancov]

Thanks alot, your guidance and demo helped alot. I went ahead and replaced the purge valve upfront as well.

[@OnlyDrones]

Excellent Video. My only problem was getting my Rear End of the Truck High Enough to reach into the cavity to get the old part out! They need to put a slightly longer tab to get your finger around. You will have to be a contortionist to get it out. However, finally got ahold of the tab and turned it loose. I replaced it with the DORMAN part listed below. I also used a little bit of Clear Silicone lube to lubricate the rubber O Ring. This is not required, but will keep the O ring from drying out. REMEMBER: Always use a good Silicone Lube on any Rubber Parts. Since anything Petroleum Based will destroy rubber Gaskets. Got the part back into the cavity and a quick 45 degree turn back in it went with tab clicking in place. Removed the power to reset the Check Engine Light. Reinstalled and started engine. FIXED! YAY! Upon inspecting the old part, there were several very small hairline cracks making it defective. Dorman Parts are far superior to MOPAR since they use a thicker and stronger plastic. Hopefully, this will be the last time I have to fix this part.

[@veronica40014]

I did this on Hubby’s truck. I hope it fixes the issue! Thank you for the tutorial.

[@henryshipes2032]

Excellent info. I would have given up on getting mine off if you hadn't shown the way with that little release clip. My big hands couldn't get in there the first few times so I went back and watched your vid some more. I finally felt it move with my fingertip and figured out how to release it and get the turn started (standard lift, and not jacked up made that pretty awkward..). After a few miles and engine start/stops, all the codes are gone! Thanks my friend!

And you can't really see anything up in that tight spot. I also used the vehicle ramps from harbor freight to lift up the back end and slid under there with a creeper. Made this job super easy.

Man, I forgot your name, but thank you. I actually had this part before I watched your bid, but you're really helpful. I never had a problem until I replaced the gas pump recently. My theory is, in addition to the bad square gasket design, I think the new gas pump produces more pressure, which somehow influences the emissions part to leak. Replacing it today! Thanks again.

Thank you very much for this. Just watched your video and fixed. After watching many videos I knew it was this or my purge. Why I chose to let the dealer smoke test when I really knew this was the issue was stupid on my part. I guess the only takeaway is I know it’s not the filler neck or a hole in the hose. Don’t spend for a smoke test when in all likelihood this is the issue.

[@mdmwelding3189]

Thanks great video

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@artmen0327]

Thanks .

[@alexhicks6303]

It's called the purge valve under the hood that you replaced at first and the one above the fuel tank is called the ESIM. Typically in these cases with that code we smoke test the fuel cap for a leak then we will test the whole system. Which you can test from the filler neck or the purge valve hose. While smoke testing the system and you can't find a leak it's best to replace both purge valve or ESIM. But if that doesn't fix the issue 99% of the time is the fuel tank. It has lines that are molded to the tank and you would have to replace the tank. To save everyone that costly shop bill at a dealership replace the purge valve or purge valve hose if it's not a rubber hose and the ESIM. And these are not covered under you emissions warranty bc these are considered "wearable items".

[@decorationdude]

I have taken my 03 ram 1500 to multiple shops and they say they can’t find a leak with a smoke test. They replaced the purge valve and leak detection pump that’s by the gas tank but I still have codes p0442 and p0456 could it be the canister by the fuel tank?
