* Faulty vent valve * Open, short or excessive resistance on Vent valve control circuit * Blockage of vent valve * Bad PCM

A code P0441 could mean one or more of the following has happened:

Bad vacuum switch Broken or damaged EVAP line

canister Open in PCM purge command circuit

Open short in Voltage feed circuit to Purge Solenoid

Faulty purge solenoid

Restriction in EVAP solenoid, line or canister

Corrosion or resistance in purge connector

Bad PCM




A code P0446 could mean one or more of the following has happened:

Faulty vent valve

Open short or excessive resistance on Vent valve control circuit Blockage of vent valve

Bad PCM

P0446 Evaporative Emmission Control System Vent Control Circuit

Evap vent valve has only one purpose. It closes in order to seal the vent so the EVAP system can pressurize and ensure there are no leaks.

This code could mean one or more of these issues have happened:

Faulty vent valve
Open, short or excessive resistance on Vent valve control circuit

Blockage of vent valve

Bad PCM

Here are some things you can try:

Replace Vent valve

Repair open, short, or resistance problem in control circuit

Repair open, or short, or resistance problem in power circuit

Replace PCM

Additionally, I suggest to check this information in the LINK.

Hope this helps.

DTC P0446 - Evaporative Emission Control System Vent Control Circuit Malfunction
Evap vent valve has only one purpose. It closes in order to seal the vent so the EVAP system can pressurize and ensure there are no leaks. Evap vent valve is usually supplied Batt. voltage with key on. The ECM's driver controls the ground, and when grounded, activates the valve (closing it). If the ECM detects a short to ground, and open,or a short to battery voltage on the control circuit, P0446 will set. Code also may refer to ECM detecting that EVAP system is unable to achieve or maintain vacuum during test. There will be no obvious symptoms to driver, other than MIL illumination.

A code P0446 could mean one or more of the following has happened:
Faulty vent valve
Open, short or excessive resistance on Vent valve control circuit
Blockage of vent valve
Bad PCM


With a P0446 OBD-II trouble code, here are some things to try:
Replace Vent valve
Repair open, short, or resistance problem in control circuit
Repair open, or short, or resistance problem in power circuit
Replace PCM
