P0455-- emission control system ( a large leak ) the most common cause is a bad seal on fuel cap, remove and replace cap, if light stats on. replace cap. if not the cap it could be any where in emission system. p0442 is--same as above. Code p0442 indicates a fuel vapor leak in the EVAP control system. To fix this problem, remove and reinstall the gas cap. Clear the codes and drive to see if the codes reappear. If the code appears again replace the gas cap or inspect the system for cuts or holes in the tube or hose. good-day !

The P0442 code indicates that a small leak in the evap (Evaporative Emission Control) system has been detected, while a P0455 indicates that a large leak in the evap system has been detected.

p0455 is evap control system no purge or large leak
p0442 is evap control system leak detected (small leak)

the cause for both could actually be a loose gas cap.

MY 2002 NEON HAS 2 CODES P0442 AND P0455 I HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL CAP BUT STILL KEEP COMING BACK

both those codes point towards evap system leak, p0442 being a small leak and p0455 being no purge or large leak, check the charcoal canister and linds attached to it for holes.
