Hello, i am new. I need help with a 2000 chevy camaro fuel tank pressure sensor, where is it located at, i have been looking it up, and found nothing. And is it hard to do, or can i do it myself.

 

The FTP sensor is attached to the fuel pump module, on top of the fuel tank. If you have the facility to drop the fuel tank, go for it. Otherwise, consider getting it serviced (ask them to fix the problem, not just replace the sensor since the problem may be in the wiring).

 

Thank you. I took it to autozone so they could read the error, and it said it could be the FTP sensor or the canister purge solenoid. I would love to do it myself.

 

And, they'll gladly sell you both parts (crummy aftermarket parts with lifetime warranty, no less), so you can keep throwing parts at the problem. You can try the purge solenoid first and hope it's not in the wiring. If that doesn't do it, consider taking it in for service.

 

Thank you very much, I will do that

 

You're quite welcome. I sincerely hope that takes care of it because the other possibilities are quite a hassle.

 

Question: why would it be the wiring, is there a known problem?

 

None that I know of. It's just that the wires run front to back (basically the length of the vehicle) and thus tracking down a wiring fault can be time-consuming.

 

ok thank you

 

I had the problem on my 01 right after I bought it and had the dealer that I bought out from replace it. It cost 500 bucks and they had to remove the exhaust and the tank.
