I had this issue with my 2006 Scion and no one could figure it out until I went and had my oil changed. The Tech there noticed the light was on and removed the gas cap, put it back on and Ta-Da no more check engine light Now I have a 2012 Infiniti with same issue, I've got a new cap on order. Thanks for your video.

Well, I just got a P0441 code on my 2013 Camry! Cleaned the gas cap and filler neck with some WD 40. The WD 40 should lube the gasket inside the cap. I have never thought of cleaning the cap, neck or gasket. I cleared the code with my scanner, let see how she goes! Thank you for the tip! I know gas caps are cheep, but so am I! I am so cheep, I look over the top of my glasses so i wont wear them out!!!
