We are assumin gthat you are talking about DTC P1443 - Evaporative Emission Control System - Vacuum System - Purge Control Solenoid or Purge Control Valve fault.

Best guess without pinpoint testing would be the purge flow sensor. This is the most common failure for this code but can be caused by anything that would limit flow across the sensor when flow is commanded by the PCM restricted cannister,stuck or plugged cannister vent solenoid,etc....

On the base model it is located in the purge line between the carbon cannister and the purge solenoid. See pic below for base model diagram(click HERE for zoom)...

Can you check trouble codes on a 94 ford mustang without a computer

This Mustang does have a computer..buy trhe Chilton manual or go to your local library and look it up.. If you are going to work on your car buy the book.. Its real easy tto check the codes.. but after that you need to know how to fix the problem. These Mustangs are really easy cars to work on.

Ford Mustang 2005. The imissions indicator light on the dash board is on. Is there a simple fix for this?

  • It could be an easy fix and it may not be. That light indicates something with the emissions has malfunctioned. You need to have the code read to know what is wrong. You can go to Auto Zone and have it read for free. Otherwise you will have to go to a repair shop or the dealer and have the code read for a fee. If you get the code pulled you can post the code here and I will return to answer what is wrong and how to fix it.
