Default Code P0455 / Charcoal Cannister Hose Repair

I recently experienced this code and after reviewing the DIY section and how to repair this I wanted to add some helpful tips if possible. The repair was written and documented very well but I discovered if you call your local Dodge dealer and ask for part no. 5166499-AA Hose Pkg this is much cheaper and easier. Total cost was $10.49 for two hoses which seems to be the culprit of the code. Remove old hoses add some dish soap to inside of hoses and slide on. Repair complete!! I know for some of you a dealer is not an option due to convenience but if you are close to one this is much easier. Hope this helps. I also checked on the cost of a PCU, (mine failed recently.) Dealer was $500.00 ++ change for a re-mfg. component. I purchased one from Solo Auto Electronics for $199.00 shipped to my door. You must purchase from e-bay in order to get this price. Happy Thanksgiving every one!!
