Re: blinking fuel light check engine
thank you!!! I didn't even think about to that! Thank you for the bet diagrams too! Can you tell me if the fuse panel is located in the cab or under the hood?

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
NOTE : Anyone know why the low beams are on a 15 amp fuse, while the high beams are on a 7.5 amp fuse ?

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
I don't ever try to get more gas in incentive full, and rarely full it all the way up either-it's probably been a month or two since I filled the tank completely full... thanks for the PDF though, informative! Have the selenoid (the parts store called it a canister purge valve) ordered-will try that Monday.. I am thinking that that is what it is, because when I found it on mounted – when this problem started a couple of days ago – it didn't correct the problem for a little bit to remount it… Plus from what I understand there is only one other thing to try – and that's $450 – the vaper tank itself..I have already replaced the gas cap as well as put some seafoam in the tank… from what I understand it does not hurt it to drive it like this? I have to have that check engine light off though, I need to have my car inspected in the next couple of days.also I have a headlight out, and it's not the headlight lamp that it's got to be the wiring as I don't have power to the low beam on the left side so I have to have both of these issues resolved to have it inspected so that I can renew my tag by the end of this month, so I'm running out of time

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
Would you happen to have pics corresponding to the left low light headlight? I mistakenly thought it was the right one...

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
would you Believe that the check engine light went out went out by itself after only changing the gas cap and adding some seafoam, I got it inspected ,the fuse was the problem along with the headlight being blown, and now the back light for the speedometer one of the lights is out in it so- crazy , can't find a fuse for it

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
Not sure why this is so confusing. The reason why a fix works for someone and not someone else (like replacing the gas cap) is because there is an evap leak *somewhere* in the evap system. The easiest way to find it is to do a smoke test. Then, you fix whatever is leaking (gas cap, a hose, whatever ...)

Re: blinking fuel light check engine
I have read the other posts of people with the infamous blinking fuel light and check engine P0455 code, I have been trying to get this issue resolved with my dealer for months and so many visits. The posts are inconclusive as to how to solve or what the problem is. Can anyone lead back to the days where my dash was not a glow in error lights. They can't find what the cause is, they just reset the codes...your input is much appreciated. Please help.
