Q: What does code P1495 mean?

Leak Detection Pump Solenoid Circuit Open Or Shorted. P1495 on a Chrysler vehicle means the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected an open or shorted circuit in the leak detection pump (LDP) solenoid, which is the electrically operated valve that seals and vents the evaporative emission system during a self-test. The computer commands the solenoid on and off while monitoring the voltage on the control circuit, and it sets this code when the expected voltage change does not occur, indicating a wiring or solenoid fault rather than a leak.
