It was about $25 at AutoZone and it was easy to access at the front of the vehicle behind the air filter.

What is the purpose of a leak detection pump?

The main purpose of the LDP is to pressurize the fuel system for leak checking. It closes the EVAP system vent to atmospheric pressure so the system can be pressurized for leak testing. The diaphragm is powered by engine vacuum. It pumps air into the EVAP system to develop a pressure of about 7.5′ H20 (1/4) psi.

When does the EVAP system detect a leak?

Malfunction is detected when EVAP control system has detected a very small leak. The Evaporative emissions system is design to prevent the escape of fuel vapors from the fuel system. Leaks in the system, ca allow vapors to escape into the atmosphere. The leak detection system tests for EVAP system leaks and blockage.

How does the leak detection system work on a jeep?

The leak detection system tests for EVAP system leaks and blockage. During the self-diagnostics, the Powertrain Control Module ( PCM) first checks the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) for electrical and mechanical faults. If the first checks pass, the PCM then uses the LDP to seal the vent valve and pump air into the system to pressurize it.

Is the leak detection pump covered under the warranty?

Your car may still be covered under the five year/50,000 mile emissions warranty.If so, you should not have had to pay a penny for that repair since the leak detection pump (LDP) is an emission control device, as is the charcoal canister (also called the vapor canister). If they are bad, there should be no charge for repair or replacement.

How does the EVAP system work on a Chrysler 300?
