Error code 16826

16826 - EVAP Emission Contol sys: Small Leak
P0442-35-10 intermittant

Pulled that code today. Any ideas what the cause could be? Maybe something others have experienced?

TIA

I'll take a bunch of guesses

Vacuum leak
02 sensor is loose or disconnected
gas cap is loose
fuel filter leak

I don't know. I mean could that error be any more vague?

EVAP cannister collects vapors from fuel...

Tubing could have come off, there is also a purge valve of some sort that could be stuck. Cannister should be near gas tank, possibly in spare tire well area, differs by model.
Bently says to check cannister and valve for leak.
