    My message cleared by itself.I cleaned it Thursday and Saturday morning when i started the truck it was gone.I was driving it normal distances not to far.I used injector cleaner on a rag that covered the funnel.Dont wrap the rag.Just cover the funnel.Also if you lost yours auto parts stores carry them.Covering the funnel helps to clean it good.Thats all i used.

    Worked for me! Light came on, was there for a few days. Eventually the check engine light came on. I performed this fix using carb cleaner (all I had) one day, did it the next day as a "just in case". Cleared check engine light, started truck, and light gone. Have run truck for 1 week, over 600 miles with no recurring issues.

  • @anthonychicoine9372

    Great video. This WORKED! I used WD-40 and the plastic filler tube that can be found near the spare tire. A five minute fix! I used an OBD-II reader to clear the code. The check engine light hadn’t come on but there was a fault code that showed up when I used the OBD-II reader. So far the message hasn’t come on again. 😊

  • @davidalexander9067

    I disconnected the battery, used a piece of old but clean rubber garden hose (instead of the plastic gadget you show in the video, which I do not have), squirted some SeaFoam and moved the hose in and out etc, reconnected the battery an hour later, both errors gone (check engine, fuel fill). The cheapest OBD2 you show that I can find here in Canada is on ebay (I do not use amazon) direct from Hong Kong, free shipping. Likely that is where they are made. Thank you and Cheers!

After restarting my car it was all gone. I used brake cleaner instead because all the old heads at the auto parts store said that’s what they would use lol. “Get the flammable kind, and don’t get it in your paint.” Is what they said, lol.

    Thank you so much for a short but highly informative video I'm gonna go try to see if I can do a few of those steps as I don't have the seafoam ispray cleaner. Since I don't have either of those is there anything else I can use with the pump that that you showed that are found to safely loosen dirt and buildup. I located it right where you said. Always was wondering, if people siphon my gasoline if they were to try and dislodge the sensors as I happen to live in a neighborhood that was nice but has turned corrupt with people breaking out windows to steal stuff and siphoning gas out of vehicles all up and down my block. Do you think my alarm system would sound if someone was stealing my gas. I had over 200 miles of fuel I had put in it a few days ago and tonight it's registering 53 miles and that's when the message appeared to check the fuel fill

    Thanks for posting. I've had this issue for a while on my 2010 f-150. I've cleaned/lubricated fuel gate (as shown in your video), but am unfortunate enough to still get the p0457 code after the computer tests again. So it looks like there is a sensor/solenoid in the filler neck itself that can go bad, which means the entire neck assembly has to be replaced. Just offering this as an "also possible" with that OBDll code and "check fuel inlet" message.

    I'm getting this code with my daughter's 2012 Fusion, so I'm going to try this fix.

    I tried this and cleared code on my fusion, check engine light went away for 2 days and came back. Turns out it’s my fuel pump. But definitely good info , will definitely help out some folks who just had a dirty cap

    Hi! is this also related to code 4055? I have a ford fusion 2012, had this kind of code,I cleaned the capless thing with wd40, I did not reset the dash/electronics, I still drove with the check engine light ON for few days but I was surprised today that the check engine light came OFF when I started my car. My question is " Did the check engine light come off because I cleaned the capless fuel? or is there a chance that it will be back again?
