Got Rid of My Tacoma's Check Engine Light!! (Vapor Pressure Sensor)

[@darleneknight1]

Love seeing young Christians these days. I am 72 and this world needs more of this. God bless.

[@kendobbs4560]

Not a mechanic but just fixed my check engine light with a PO441code by following the advice in this video. Bought the part for the Tundra, removed the bracket for the Tundra and then attached the new part to old bracket. Disconnected the battery to reset codes and then put about 100 mi on my 2001 Tacoma (219,000 mi). Wen't down for the emissions inspection and passed no problem. Nice guy checking me out commented how nice my truck was and how good of care I took of it. Felt kinda proud of the old girl and me too for fixing the issue. New tag just came in the mail today! 😁

[@DartBProductions]

That's awesome! I'm proud of you

[@dellalderman8011]

Update. Changed mine out. Close to 2,000 miles now. Still no check engine light. Thanks again!!!!

[@DartBProductions]

That's great! Glad it helped man

[@justinrose6862]

Love the message at the end!!!!

[@DartBProductions]

Thank you so much!! I love the word of God

[@nc4ril]

My friend just gave me a used one he had laying around last week, same codes, it worked.

[@DartBProductions]

Good stuff 👍

[@dellalderman8011]

I changed mine out about 3 days ago. Had to order the 2001 Tundra one. Did not make one for the Tacoma just like you said. I used needle nose pliers to pinch the new one off the bracket. Has some little raised dots that help hold it from slipping off easy. They are hidden. Only took a second once I figured it out. I am near 130 miles on mine with no check engine light. The check engine light usually comes on at about 70 miles or so. Oh yeah. The part costs me about 209.00. Got it online. Included shipping. I know it's still early to say it's fixed but just wanted to say thanks for posting your video. It was driving me crazy. Even the dealership could not fix it!! Thanks again.

[@DartBProductions]

Hey that's awesome! Super glad I was able to help you

[@christophercastaneda9013]

What engine size tundra did you order the part for?

[@Chopshop573co]

@@christophercastaneda9013 I imagine it was for the first gen tundra with the 3.4, as some of them did come with it

Love the ending it was unexpected.

[@donojazz]

Could not get a vapor pressure sensor for my 2001 Toyota Tacoma, so I ordered one for 2001 Toyota Tundra. Anxiously awaiting delivery by UPS. Thanks for walkthrough on replacement. I'll let you know how it goes. JD

[@donojazz]

Installed part. Disconnected battery to reset system. Drove the 10 miles to the inspection facility for recheck. Connected tester - No codes but was told to drive around for about 4 days until every settles in. Apparently if you disconnected the battery, you need to drive through several driving cycles (whatever that is) until the tester can read correctly. BTW, the Tundra part came as a unique assembly. Did not have to remove from bracket. Total replacement time about 15 minutes.

[@lfuentes4098]

@@donojazz where did you get your part? I have a 2001 Toyota Tacoma V6 3.4 L in CA, where emissions are strict. Thanks for the info.

[@CB-sw5kl]

Are the vapor pressure sensor and the fuel tank pressure sensors the same thing? They look the same on Rock Auto, although the vapor pressure sensor is non-existent. Rock auto calls it the fuel tank pressure sensor.

[@JoEZiii]

Ever figure this out? Wondering the same thing

[@caseynewland2614]

Super rad time lapse music! Good fix man!! Way to save money too!!

[@DartBProductions]

That's the way!! Thanks man!

[@nlvoutdoors5626]

Thanks for the info and love your conclusion words...God bless

[@tominson90ify]

is there a way to test the old sensor to know it is bad? Did you test it somehow? Thanks

[@farsighter2000]

How do you remove the sensor from the bracket? an explanation would be nice

[@DartBProductions]

I basically just wiggled it and pulled on it until it came off. Nothing fancy

[@justinhaywood8179]

What does work for a 2000 Tacoma?

[@williamellerman6647]

Were you having any other issues? My Runner is having issues starting after getting gas. I’ve replaced both purge valves and I’m still having issues. I’m getting a P0440 code as well.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Gas cap.

[@pmi0394]

Where did you buy the sensor from. Still no check engine light.

[@DartBProductions]

I picked it up from toyotapartsdeal.com and the check engine light is still nowhere to be seen!

[@philipperichen2702]

Dart B are you still running your Tacoma? Wondering if after all this time no issues with the swap?

[@jvnd5363]

besides the check engine light ? did the truck have any other symptoms like rough idling ? while at a stoplight or short stops while on Drive ? I just got this code, and i notice mild idling ....

[@mightymen8326]

i just ordered mine. i will share how it goes.

Well?

[@jnossoff]

likely helpful content, but too much wasted time. Glad for the effort, but I don't need to watch you open a package. This could be a 2 minute video were it not for too much -not relevant content.

[@DartBProductions]

I appreciate that feedback a lot! I've definitely learned a lot since then

[@rudy2relentless79]

Would this part number work on a 4cyl 2001 tacoma?

[@royphillips4107]

did your CEL light stay "off"? I did the same repair to my '01 Tacoma (V6) but the CEL came back on.

[@DartBProductions]

Yes, my CEL hasn't come back and it's been well over six months of driving

[@bardinkurtis]

Any luck Roy?

[@sueannsoto7299]

So what could I interchange with a 2001 tacoma base 2.7l?

[@DartBProductions]

I'm not sure off the top of my head honestly. The reason I was able to use the Tundra sensor is because it was a sensor for a 3.4 Tundra, which has the same motor as my 3.4 Tacoma.

[@herthao8698]

my toyota t100 1997 have that code p0450 and p0441 can change the same?

[@DartBProductions]

I would think so

[@1SlowYota]

i got an 02 v6 but how come i don’t have my vpson the driver side firewall unless its on the gas tank but dont know where

[@TrillKump]

Boom. Outta here at 5:34 as soon as I figured out what you were realllllyyyy pushing.

[@DartBProductions]

No worries, I understand that not everyone is interested. This is first and foremost a car channel but I do like to share my beliefs sometimes. I hope the video was helpful to you!

[@dellalderman8011]

I liked it. Been trying to figure out the same problem with my truck. Maybe God led us to this spot. He works in mysterious ways. Thanks

[@DartBProductions]

I'm really glad you appreciated it and I wish you good luck with your truck!

@@DartBProductions still no problems with it?? Just had the same thing happen to mine and it’s impossible to find the actual sensor produced for the Tacoma

[@angelmendoza6833]

How'd you figure it was this?

[@DartBProductions]

I tested the power pins to the sensor to see if they were all powered correctly using a multimeter and they were. Then I used a vacuum pump from a brake kit attached to the sensor to see if vacuum caused it to change its output and nothing changed, so I knew the sensor was faulty
