Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue and 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
This DTC tests for undesired intake manifold vacuum flow to Evaporative (EVAP) emission system. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) seals the EVAP system by commanding EVAP canister purge valve off and EVAP canister vent valve on. The PCM monitors Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor to determine if a vacuum is being drawn on the EVAP system. If vacuum in the EVAP system is more than a predetermined value within a predetermined time, DTC P1441 will set.
