What P0467 usually means

Purge Flow Sensor Circuit Low Input.

Common symptoms

Check Engine light; Poor drivability or reduced fuel economy depending on fault; Fuel smell possible; Usually little drivability change

Likely causes

Loose/damaged fuel cap; Cracked EVAP hose; Faulty purge/vent valve; Leaking canister; Low signal voltage; Weak power supply; High resistance/poor ground; Failed sensor

Diagnostic checks

Scan all modules and record freeze-frame data before clearing codes; Check battery voltage and related fuses; Check fuel cap seal first; Smoke-test EVAP system; Command purge/vent valves with scan tool if available; Check sensor reference voltage, ground and signal voltage

Repair guidance

Replace damaged cap/hoses, repair leaks, replace stuck purge or vent valve after testing; Repair poor ground/power feed or replace confirmed faulty sensor

Verification after repair

Clear code, road-test through the same drive condition, then rescan

Note: Confirm vehicle make/model/year because manufacturer-specific codes can vary. A DTC identifies a circuit or system condition, not always the failed part.
