It would be good for you to take your car into the auto shop. They would be able to read the code better. That way they can effectively diagnose and fix your car. https://www.surprisecarcare.com/emissions-repair

Its a Evaporative Emissions problem. A repair shop will have to diagnose and recommend repairs.

I have an 03 Ram 1500, engine light is on, I had

p0440 - Evap. system performance (this could be something as simple as not turning the gas cap several times after you fill up.

p0456 - Evap leak monitor Small leak detected. - Could be related to the previous code.

p2106 - Throttle Actuator Control System - Forced limited power : This one you might have noticed the vehicle running rough, overdrive not working properly and cruise control will not set.

p2175 - Throttle Actuator Control System - Low airflow detected.

What you might want to try first is have the codes cleared which most auto parts stores offer this for nothing (unless you have a programmer then you can do it yourself). Pour in some fuel injector cleaner into your gas, put a new air filter on. And when you fill up your gas tank, crank the cap several times when you put it back on.
See if the codes come back on after that.

2002 chrysler neon error code p0456

a small evap leak is often interpreted as a loose gas cap , which it can be , it means the evap systems integrity has been breached , it can be an electrical solenoid , switch or just a vacuum line in the system . a bidirectional scanner can run the evap test after checking the gas cap , most well equipped shops can hook up a smoke machine to the evap system service port and run the smoke test , it there is a leak you will see the smoke , makes the diagnosis quickly . get an estimate from a reputable shop , by the way this problem has no effect on drivability , but should be fixed . cheers

Diagnostic code P0456 for 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7

P0456 = EVAP Emissions Control System Leak Very Small

Is the gas cap on tight or is the seal damaged? If it needs replacement, get it from the dealer.
