you should be able to fix it look for a can near the fuel tank that has vacuum hoses coming out of it and you should be able to just buy the bad solenoid
SOURCE: check engine soon light. diagnosed as troble shooting codepo44
Change the evap vent solenoid canister located near the master cylinder on the right side of the engine or your hoses may be cracked. Good luck!
SOURCE: Mustang GT 4.6 EVAP Canister Purge Valve Location?
You will need to remove the right front wheel & wheel well liner. The canister purge valve is behind the cover. It should have two tube going into the bottom and one on the side near the top.
You can fix it!
If this helps you out please rate me!

SOURCE: I have 1997 F150,check engine light came on, took
maybe a fuse is blown? did you have the mechanic check the fuses? or even check all your relays and wiring?
SOURCE: saturn code p0442, evap system small leak, can't find leak
I would send the car in for a smoke test...So much easier to find the leak...
Testimonial: "found another definitation for a code 422. replaced rear o2,fixed"
Most likely is a bad EVAP purge valve. But check below list.
This indicates that a part of the EVAP
control system is no longer functioning correctly. The EVAP system consists of
many parts, including (but not limited to) the gas cap, fuel lines, carbon
canister, purge valve, and other hoses. The (EVAP) emission control system
prevents the escape of fuel vapors from a vehicle's fuel
system. Fuel vapors are routed by hoses to a charcoal canister for storage.
Later, when the engine is running a purge control valve opens allowing intake
vacuum to siphon the fuel vapors into the engine.
EVAP emission canister purge is controlled
by a valve which allows engine vacuum to pull stored fuel vapors from fuel tank
into the engine to be burned, rather than be vented to atmosphere. A vacuum
switch is used to detect when flow exists. If the PCM commands purge and sees
that the switch is closed (indicating no detected purge flow) P0441 is set.

Symptoms
Likely, no symptoms will be discernible to
the driver, other than the illuminated Check Engine Light.
Causes
A code P0441 could mean one or more of the
following has happened:
With a P0441 OBD-II trouble code, diagnosis
can be tricky at times. Here are some things to try:

Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid
Description & Operation
The duty cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid (DCP) regulates the rate of vapor flow from the EVAP canister to the intake manifold. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) operates the solenoid.
During the cold start warm-up period and the hot start time delay, the PCM does not energize the solenoid. When de-energized, no vapors are purged. The PCM de-energizes the solenoid during open loop operation.
The engine enters closed loop operation after it reaches a specified temperature and the time delay ends. During closed loop operation, the PCM cycles (energizes and de-energizes) the solenoid 5 or 10 times per second, depending upon operating conditions. The PCM varies the vapor flow rate by changing solenoid pulse width. Pulse width is the amount of time that the solenoid is energized. The PCM adjusts solenoid pulse width based on engine operating condition.
Removal & Installation
The duty cycle evaporative (EVAP) canister purge solenoid is located in the engine compartment near the brake master cylinder.
