Follow up a Check Fuel Cap message

Track the actual message after correct cap closure and separate it from an engine warning.

A conceptual cap with a clockwise closure arrow is paired with the manual requirement for at least one audible click. Closure is not presented as proof that a warning or fuel-system problem is fixed.
Original schematic. A correctly closed cap is an observation, not a diagnosis or proof that a warning has cleared. Manual reference
