Re: P0441 code fixed for fairly cheap. Purge valve was bad.

Hey guys I know it been a while since anyone has posted on this thread but I just wanted to add that there are 2 purge canisters the one that breaks the most is located at the back of the car next to the charcoal canister. I had the same problem with my 99 prizm. I bought the front purge valve and it worked to about 140 miles then I got the error back. I replaced the rear purge valve with one I got from the junk yard and haven had a problem since. The puge valve is like the one in the front but has a tube coming out of the bottom. If you get a used one when it's not energized you should be able to blow air from the bottom (metal) out the top. If you can't blow ari the part is bad.

I hope this helps someon else that has had this problem. (I't really common)
