I am new,99 Explorer trouble

[hibbittsr]

I have a 99 explorer v-6 4.0 l
The engine light is on. I took it to AutoZone and had it scanned.This is the code P0443 The PCM determined that a malfunction exists in the electrical circuit for the purge control valve in theevaporative emission control system.
What can I do to fix this?

Please Help!
Thanks,HIBBITTSR

sounds like the pvc valve needs replaced, but i am not sure, try doing a search for p0443 and see what that gets you

The PCM monitors the complete EVAP control system for presence of a small fuel vapor leak. The system failure occurs when a fuel vapor leak from an opening as small as 0.10 cm (0.04 inch) is detected by the EVAP running loss monitor test.

Possible causes:

• After-market EVAP hardware (such as fuel filler cap) non-conforming to required specifications
• Small holes or cuts in fuel vapor hoses/tubes
• Canister vent solenoid stays partially open on closed command
• Damaged, cross-threaded or loosely installed fuel filler cap
• Loose fuel vapor hose/tube connections to EVAP system components
• EVAP system component seals leaking (EVAP canister purge valve, fuel tank pressure sensor, canister vent solenoid, fuel vapor control valve tube assembly or fuel vapor vent valve assembly

Good look .....
