my car is doing the same thing when i puch it @ 3300 rpms, my check engine light comes on and it is giving me the error #443. lost my manual[:@]

jdaniel

Is that code P0443 on a OBD II ???

I'd be extremely careful with the hair drier.

How about disconnecting everything and letting it sit on a table in the sun?

tarpymac

yea jdaniel, that is the code. do you know what that is? let me know!!!!!!

jdaniel

I disconnected everything Dan. Is a hair dryer a bad idea? I mean right now its 98 degrees in the shade out side. I figured the hair dryer would be a bit cooler.

Hang on a sec Tarpymac... Im gonna look it up and get back with you.

DUDE thanks for all the info!!!!! i printed it out a few times, because i lost mine. so code #443, what is this? where is it located? can i buy this @ autozone,etc. or is this some expensive part from ford? will this stop the hesitation? thanks again for all the info dude!!!!!

A system for reducing evaporative emissions by means of a sealed fuel tank, a vapour-liquid separator, a three-way valve, an activated carbon filter, and a network of interconnecting hoses. Also called "evaporation control system"


I dont know if this will help but here you go. This was all I could really find. Call your local ford dealer and see if they can help you from there.

P0443 - EVAP Control System Canister Purge Valve Circuit Malfunction The PCM monitors the EVAP canister purge valve circuit for an electrical failure. The test fails when the signal moves outside the minimum or maximum allowable calibrated parameters for a specified purge duty cycle by PCM command. VPWR circuit open
EVAP canister purge valve circuit shorted to GND
Damaged EVAP canister purge valve
EVAP canister purge valve circuit open
EVAP canister purge valve circuit shorted to VPWR
Damaged PCM
Monitor EVAPPDC PID and voltage between EVAP canister valve signal and PWR GND in output test mode with key ON engine OFF (or in key ON engine RUNNING mode). EVAPPDC PID at 0% and voltage less than 1.0 volts (or EVAPPDC PID at 100% and voltage less than 0.5 volts) indicates a hard fault.

FINAL UPDATE!!!: I got it running!

The deal was the sensor. I picked it up and I was about to throw it out the door and call DeMolet MotorSports to get a new one. I squeezed it and heard a hissing noise followed by a drip of water! BINGO!!! I took a blower dryer to it for about 10 minutes... squeezed it again and no sound and no water. I put it back on the MAM and took the ride around the block and she screamed like no other! I was happy as hell!!!
