Before changing the gas cap itself, check the hoses to and from the purge valve and charcoal canister. It only takes a small leak from one of the lines to set the code as it is gas fume pressure that makes the valve itself work, so no pressure or small leak that prevents it from functioning properly, the code gets set. If all the hoses are good, no cracks or loose fittings, then the gas cap sounds reasonable.
