Thanks for this video. Would not have had a clue what to look for with the ESIM switch without this. Kept having a recurring "gas cap" warning and check engine light on a 2008 Chrysler Sebring. Changing rhe gas cap solved it for a couple of months before it came back. Went for a service at the dealer and they told me at was the ESIM switch, but wanted approx. $600 to change it. With this video, I was able to see what I was looking for, found the part for $35 and changed it myself. For anyone else with a 2008 Sebring, the charcoal canister is on the driver's side, and just inboard of the wheel well, so you don't need to remove either the wheel or the panel to get to it
Same with 07 pacifica, but driver side under the seat.
Does this part affect the cooling system? I’m running hot and the only issue popping on the diagnostic is esim for the check engine light as well.
@@warriorsage2305 hot is typically air in the cooling system.
@@Meche697 yeah it was my 02 sensor

Did this on a 2007 Jeep Liberty in about 20 minutes. It's located almost exactly in the middle and directly above the gas tank on the front side. I was able to get both hands up there to work without taking anything off. Super easy to work on (as are most things on this Jeep).
You hurried up the video at the most important times you might have struggled but it would have been nice to see the pressure needed and how it would come off and how it would go on
There is a tang that needs to be depressed and then the unit needs to be rotated clockwise and will move away from the canister as it rotates.
So, what's the deal that you didn't show how to reinstall the ESIM. It's not easy to reinstall this module.
It is easier to put in than take out...the tab to depress and taking the liner out is the most difficult part and that's not difficult...he just fumbled a little and cut that part out with an edit. Not difficult at all.
I just did this job on my 2010 Ram 1500 with 25 gal tank. The video is good but here is extra color.
As was said in the other comments, the device is on the back side of the gas tank, on the drive shaft side. It is hidden by a heat shield. The tank does not need to be dropped at all as was stated in some other videos. Study this video and you can the feel around the device to unhook it in place. I did not need to jack up my truck at all. Remove that electrical connection by pinching it good. You will hear it click then you can pull backwards. Pulling the hose off requires some twisting to loosen it. Once that is done, wrap your hand around the device to feel for that tab on the bottom. Pull it toward the device and rotate the module. If you can do this, the reverse is easy. I did run my fingers over the gas tank to check for foreign debris before putting the new device on.
Last thing, the code will need to be cleared out. I did it by disconnecting the battery, then hitting the horn and cycling the ignition a couple of times. Got to get that residual voltage out. I did not do a full test of my truck but did an in place startup and the check engine light is off and the gas cap light is off too. I will drive it later today to test it further.
did you have the P0441 code ?
@@user-jm9ep3zp5g yes but I had to replace the fuel tank due to a crack in one of the fittings. I think they probably could have tapped a metal nipple in to replace the nylon one.
How long until your check engine light went off?
He manually cleared the codes to see if it'd come back on. But it's like, four or five successful pressurization cycles? There's a manual somewhere.
Thank You! Extremely helpful
where is the location shown on the video above? is it in a wheel well?
Where is this located on 2014 jeep patroit?
For chrysler 300, 2008 where is that, in the same place like the charger?
I replaced mine and now my gas gauge isn’t work. Does anyone know why?
Can this be bench tested? On the self test, it couldn't stay closed to even run the test and failed for large leak. But can I energize it it see if it is closing? Is it 5v?
I'd love to know how to test one too.
I saw another vid that said some are 5v some are 12, but they didn't clarify on which years or models.
I replaced mine light went off for a week then back on. Replaced it again light off for 3 days then back on 😢
Would a 2012 300c have this in the same area ?
Pardon me - just checked... Left rear wheelhouse area under splash sheild... I could have sworn it was front side of the tank in plain sight... I guess that changed.
Where could it be on a 2007 Chrysler Sebring?
Is it the same location as challenger?
So a LDP is a ESIM as well does not make sense but who knows if order one for my RAM 1500 the CEL keep coming on so I hope this works for my truck
Did it work?
Where is it located
Nice video 👍 thanks
Nice vid , can u show how to take off the charcoal canister ? As it has 2 hoses w clamps nd may b few screws not sure ? But how do u get them hoses off the canister with out braking its clamps?
I got a smell of gas bad after driving for awhile I have a 2005C coming from the evaporator tank so you think I need to replace the whole tank
Stop eating so much Taco Bell and the bad smells will go away...lol
Anyone know where it’s located at on a 2009 Dodge Avenger
I kept looking for it as well, but I finally found it and it’s in the rear driver side. It’s next to the exhaust.
Dealership tried to charge me 700 to replace 😒
Car dealership repair shops are always highway robbery. Finding a good mom and pop shop can be tough. I find that mom and pop shops will misdiagnose issues that I can self diagnose with 15 minutes of Googling. DIY is best for all but the biggest repairs, IMHO.
Nice video. Any ideas where this part is located on a 2014 Dodge Durango? There is surprisingly very little online info. about this. I got the P0456 code indicating this.
It. should be attached directly to the charcoal cannister at the front lower end of the gas tank. That's where it was on the 2007-9s and 2010s so I assume it's similar.
Above the back driverside tire. Remove the wheel well cover its right there. Right under the gas filler line.
@@trappaboi361 same for 2015. Thanks!!
