Failed inspection

I failed NC inspection and this is the problem.

Stored Diagnostic trouble codes:

p0443 Evaporative Emission control system purge control valve circuit

How do I fix this?

Pull the negative battery cable off for 1 hour(I think), reconnect it. That
should reset all codes.

have you cleared the codes to make sure it is a hard code? I do not
think you can reset codes by unplugging the battery on this car (odb2)
with out a scan tool. this code can be set for several reasons, bad
EVAP canister purge control solenoid, bad driver in the PCM, which
supplies ground to the solenoid or a wiring problem. you will need a
scan tool and a DVOM to check this out. if you have this i will be
glad to help you diagnosis this problem with you. if you do not have
the equipment, then you may need to take it to some one who does.
let me know. greg

Greg,

Thanks for the info.

The service engine light came on awhile back & didn't know what the problem
was.

I can use the scan tool at Auto Zone. What is a DVOM?

Digital Volt-Ohm Meter.

I have a Digital Volt-Ohm Meter & use it all the time.

All I need is the locations & volt readings ...
