DTC Code
Okay, I'm having trouble getting the definition for a DTC code. I hooked my truck up to one of those nifty code readers, and all I got was the code[undefined?], which doesn't do me much good if I want to keep my 'check engine' light from coming on.
If anyone can help, this is the code 'C0442'
The most information I have been able to track down, is something about an 'auxiliary emission system sensor', but nothing specific,
help, please.
Thanks,
Brian

Is it a P0442 instead of a C0442?
P codes are Powertrain codes which will turn on the Check Engine Light.
C codes are chassis codes such as ABS.
A P0442 indicates that a fuel vapor leak has been detected in the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system.

Yep, it's a 'C' not a 'P'. That has been the root of my problem, the reader has no definition for it, and all the DTC lists I can find on-line do not include 'C' codes, or very few, it's frustrating when you have a reader.
Thanks for your help,
