Do you have the truck connected to FordPass?

 No, I've never heard of FordPass.

Like a loose hose now that you said, I remember getting an alert and checking the code. My friend who is a mechanic told me to check a particular hose. It had come loose.

Evaporative Emissions small/medium/large leak detected. I think the small leak code would be P0456.

Yes, I just checked it last week.  Maybe I didn't get it back in correctly.

Make sure you didn't unplug the MAF sensor that's right next to the filter housing.  :twocents:

I may have had a similar experience......went to my mechanic, he cleared it and said that it might be due to me driving less during covid and just making short trips. Said to get it out on the road, build up some speed and then let it slow down and then goose it. Light never came back on.

There's a TSB to replace the MAP sensor for that code.

Found on the interweb:

Quote
P0096 - Intake Air Temperature Sensor-2 Circuit Range/Performance Bank-1

Description:
This DTC sets when the IAT2 sensor PID does not correlate with the CACT sensor or the IAT sensor PIDs at ignition ON. It also sets if the IAT2 sensor PID exceeds the maximum calibrated temperature threshold while driving.

Possible Causes:
Slow responding IAT2 sensor
Damaged IAT2 sensor

Diagnostic Aids:
The IAT2 sensor is located on top of the intake manifold. Aftermarket heaters that are attached to the engine, transmission or battery may cause DTC P0096 to set in cold weather climates after a 6 h soak period.

This DTC may be accompanied by other DTCs. Check for other DTCs and diagnose those first.

Personally, for that code, I'd clear it and see if it comes back.  From there I'd likely chase the MAP sensor per the TSB.

I did just that.  I cleaned the MAF connector and airbox, changed the air filter and I updated my Synch software.  I cleared the code and, so far, it hasn’t returned.  I didn’t find a smoking gun cause so I have no idea what the problem was. 

Oddly enough, it seems to shift more crisply now.  Software update?  I have no clue.  But no more engine light.

Sync has no effect on anything but the radio/screen/etc.  I'm not sure how cleaning the mass air flow sensor is going to fix an intake air temp sensor code. The TSB that related to that code is to replace the MAP sensor. Not the MAF sensor.
:dunno:
