- Faulty EVAP canister purge solenoid
- Faulty Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor
How do I fix code P1441 PONTIAC?
Check the “Possible Causes” listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector’s pins.
Cost of diagnosing the P1441 PONTIAC code
The cost of diagnosing the P1441 PONTIAC code is 1.0 hour of labor. The auto repair labor rates vary by location, your vehicle’s make and model, and even your engine type. Most auto repairs shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
When is the code detected
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has detected vacuum flow to the Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor during a system sealed condition.
Possible Symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Possible a noticeable fuel odor caused by the release of fuel vapors
P1441 PONTIAC Description
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the amount of vacuum/pressure in the EVAP system by monitoring the fuel tank pressure sensor signal. The PCM seals the EVAP system by commanding the EVAP Purge Solenoid OFF and the EVAP vent valve ON. The PCM monitors the fuel tank pressure sensor in order to determine if the EVAP Purge Solenoid is leaking vacuum to the EVAP system.
