- 2002 Ford Explorer EB
Aloha from Hawaii!
I have a 2002 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer, and the service engine soon light has been staying on for months. The first time it came on, I took it to the dealer, who charged my $150 to tell me that the light was on because the gas cap was not fully seated.
A month later when the light came on a gain, I decided to get my own OBDII code reader & checked it myself. It cmae back with the P0442 description in the title.
This sounds like the same thing again (gas cap)...
The cap itself looks fine , & seems to be seated tightly....should I look at replacing that sensor?
Besides the error, the truck runs great (besides the horribe gas mileage).
Thanks for any input!
