P1495 Code: Leak Detection Pump Solenoid Circuit (Chrysler)

On Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles, the P1495 code means the computer found an electrical fault in the leak detection pump solenoid circuit. It usually causes no noticeable symptoms. Other brands may define this number differently.

What the P1495 code means

P1495 is a manufacturer-specific code: the 1 in the second position means each automaker defines what it means, not the generic SAE standard. The most widespread definition is the one used by Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram. If your vehicle is another brand, confirm the code text with a scan tool that supports that manufacturer.

Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and RamLeak detection pump solenoid circuit

Chrysler tests the EVAP system with a leak detection pump (LDP) that pressurizes the system. A switch inside the pump reports every pumping cycle.

The computer sets the P1495 code when it detects an electrical fault in the LDP solenoid.

Before you start repairs, confirm the make, model, year and engine. With manufacturer codes, the same number can change even between engines from the same brand.

P1495 code symptoms

  • Check engine light on.
  • Usually no symptoms at all.

Likely causes of the P1495 code

  1. Solenoid open or shorted. Confirm it with the tests in the diagnosis section.
  2. Corroded connector. Check the lock tab, the pins and any sign of moisture or corrosion.
  3. Wiring damaged under the vehicle. Look for rubbing against the engine, the chassis or the exhaust.

How to diagnose the P1495 code step by step

  1. Measure the solenoid resistance with the connector unplugged.
  2. Inspect the connector for corrosion and loose pins.

How to fix the P1495 code

  • Replace the LDP.
  • Repair the connector.

Technical reference data

  • Typical solenoid resistance: 20 to 40 ohms.
  • P1xxx codes are manufacturer-specific: confirm the definition with a scan tool that supports your brand.
  • Reference values: check the manufacturer data for your vehicle.

Brand-specific notes

This is an electrical code, so a quick resistance check at the solenoid tells you whether the pump or the wiring is the problem.

P1495 on Chrysler

Common on the Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Ram.

If your vehicle is another brand, check the table above for the meaning its manufacturer gives this code and confirm it with a compatible scan tool.

Frequently asked questions about P1495

What does the P1495 code mean on a Chrysler?
It means there is an electrical fault in the leak detection pump solenoid circuit. It usually causes no symptoms.
Does P1495 mean the same thing on every brand?
No. It is a manufacturer-specific code, so on other brands it may not exist or may mean something different. Confirm it with a scan tool that supports your make.
Can I drive with a P1495 code?
Yes. A P1495 code does not affect how the vehicle drives. The EVAP system just cannot complete its self-test until it is repaired.
How much does it cost to fix P1495?
Roughly $60 to $250 on a Chrysler. A connector repair is cheaper, while a new leak detection pump costs more.
Will a P1495 code clear itself?
Not while the solenoid or its wiring is faulty. After a repair, clear the code and drive normally to confirm it stays off.
What is the most common cause of P1495?
An open or shorted solenoid inside the pump. A corroded connector and damaged wiring under the vehicle come next.
