The clean-out cap locator forms a cap that encloses a clean-out plug. The clean-out cap locator comprises a threaded cap, a control circuit, a remote control, and a personal data device. The control circuit determines the GPS coordinates of the control circuit. The control circuit transmits the GPS coordinates of the control circuit to the personal data device. The control circuit generates an audible alarm indicating the location of the clean-out cap locator. The control circuit senses the flow of fluid around near the clean-out cap locator. The control circuit transmits an alarm to the personal data device when the control circuit senses a back-up in the clean-out plug. The control circuit generates an audible alarm when the control circuit detects a back-up in the clean-out plug. The remote control sends a signal to the control circuit that causes the control circuit to generate an audible alarm.
