P0455: EVAP System Leak Detected — Large Leak

The fuel-vapor system cannot hold pressure because of a large opening or leak.

What P0455 means

The fuel-vapor system cannot hold pressure because of a large opening or leak.

Common possible causes

  • Missing or loose fuel cap
  • Disconnected EVAP hose
  • Stuck valve or damaged charcoal canister

What to check first

Record all stored and pending codes and freeze-frame data before clearing anything. Inspect relevant wiring, connectors, hoses, fluid levels, and obvious damage. Use vehicle-specific service information and test the affected system before purchasing parts.

A code is not a parts order. Several faults can create the same code, and replacing the component named in a code description may not correct the underlying problem.
