Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light (CEL) illuminated after installation

Ensure the cap is fully tightened until it clicks. A loose or improperly sealed cap can trigger evaporative emission system codes. If the CEL persists, double-check that the correct part number for your vehicle was purchased and installed.

Cap is difficult to screw on or off

Inspect the threads on both the cap and the fuel filler neck for any damage or obstructions. Clean the threads if necessary. Ensure you are using the correct cap for your vehicle model, as a mismatched cap may not thread properly.

Fuel vapor smell around the fuel filler area

Confirm the cap is sealed correctly. Check the cap's rubber seal for any cracks or damage. If the seal is compromised, the cap may need replacement. Also, inspect the filler neck for any signs of corrosion or damage.
