code p0456

SES came up about a month ago, scanned it and came up unidentified code: p0456. so i cleared it and it and everything was fine. until yesterday when the SES came on again, with the same code.
Anyone know what this code is?

Emissions leak, probably related to the vent valve cannister. I don't know what the hell it is but I had mine replaced under warranty.
