What P1441 means on specific makes

Chevy / GMC / Cadillac / Buick SAFE

The PCM detects EVAP vapor flow when there shouldn't be any (during a non-purge window) — typically a purge valve stuck open. Emissions-only; may cause a slightly rough or stumbling idle if it's pulling vapor at idle.

  1. Stuck-open purge solenoid/valve ($30-100)
  2. Vent valve fault ($30-100)
  3. EVAP line routing/leak ($0-100)

Check first: Test the purge valve — if it's stuck open or leaking vacuum at idle, replace it.
