To fix an evaporative emission control system (EVAP) leak, first, use a diagnostic scanner to identify any trouble codes and locate the source of the leak. Common fixes include replacing damaged hoses, seals, or the gas cap, which can often be the culprit. After repairs, perform a smoke test to ensure no further leaks are present, and reset the vehicle's computer to clear any error codes. Finally, take the vehicle for a short drive to confirm that the check engine light does not reappear.
