I was driving home from work today when my "indicator malfunction light" came on. I am getting diagnostic code P0457 when I toggle the keys with no other codes (it says "done"). Can anyone tell me what this means?
A quick search indicates maybe a loose gas cap, so I tightened down my gas cap. I drove around the block, but the indicator light is still on. The gas tank is at about 3/4 full, last filled on Saturday and driven over 70 miles since being filled. Would the light go off immediately if it was a loose cap?
Any leads would be helpful, my dad is a retired mechanic and I'd like to try and get him to fix this problem before I go in for dealer service.
