If you have a similar problem go to a shop that will perform a smoke test. They put a connector that matches your gas cap and fill the system with smoke. Believe me you will see where the littlest leak is! Ofcourse you should visually check for obvious things first as the smoke test is a final and possibly costly resort

My 2007 is doing this. We have inspections here in my city and I failed because of it. I changed the gas cap and it still came back on. I'm going to look underneath it in the am to see if that cord is unhooked (hopefully the 2007-2017 model is slightly the same under there). One dealership "fixed" the problem and the light came back on so then I took it to Dodge and they said I need a new tank because of the line going to the tank. They said they can't repair the line because the tank and the line is one solid piece, but get this,,,,, that's what the dealership before them worked on. Idk who's lying so I'm trying to figure it out for myself. Thanks for this info.

Do you know if it's had to to reset, or if they disconnected the battery. Just a thought.

The leak detection pump, also known as the EVAP system integrity module (ESIM) is generally located at the rear of the fuel tank on top of the tank. Not sure if this is the correct model for your year but it will look similar to this. www.summitracing.com/parts/MOP-04861962AB. Is it OK to drive? If this is all it is then yes it's probably fine, but I can't really make that determination for you. You can go to Autozone and have them pull the code that is causing the error and then you'll have a better idea of what the actual problem is. But, being a RAM and the gas cap light, it's likely that it's one or the other. Hope this helps.

It is advised to always disconnect the negative side of the battery cable prior to doing work on the fuel system and always wear standard protective gear.
