2009 Corvette C6 Coupe check engine code P0454
I used my code checker to find out why my check engine light came on. I tried to reset the check engine light with my code checker but the check engine light stays on and the code comes back when I restart the car. Its code P0454 Fuel tank pressure sensor. Is it hard to change? Anyone have any advice? 2009 Coupe 22000 miles.

p0454 is in the group of evap pressure codes.
i would replace the gas cap to eliminate that possibility. like most things, you replace the cheap first and since a new cap wouldnt hurt, good starting point.
fyi.. replace a fuel tank pressure sensor (if you get to that point)

Yeah I kinda think this might be part of the cause because my gas cap doesnt seem to tighten as well. I will stop at the dealership and buy a cap today.

if you want a good laugh...
cant say if sensor is bad, but here is some info if you end up needing it
gm part number 13502903 will look almost identical to this..
see item #14..

But I bet the fix you're getting involves R&R the evap canister Vent Solenoid... it's a logical next step... $90 + $70 sounds about right:
