What does a p0441 trouble code on a Kia mean?
A P0441 trouble code on a Kia means the ECM has detected an incorrect purge flow. Purge flow is part of the evaporative emissions system. When you fill up the tank, the fuel vapors are collected by the charcoal canister. When you start the engine, the ECM commands a purge operation to pull the vapor out of the canister and burn it in the engine.
Why do I get a p0441 code on my ECM?
Loose fuel tank filler cap is the most common cause that triggers the P0441 code. What does this mean? When is the code detected? The ECM monitors the Fuel Tank Pressure sensor in order to determine the level of vacuum/pressure in the EVAP system.
What does the OBD code on a Kia mean?
The P0441 Kia code means that the control module has detected a leak in the Evaporative Emission (EVAP). Loose fuel tank filler cap is the most common cause that triggers the P0441 Kia code. What about the obd code? The Engine Control Module (ECM) tests the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system for the following conditions:
How to find out if your Kia has a problem?
Start your diagnostics by checking the FTPS voltage reading at idle. Use live data on your scan tool or backprobe the +5V reference signal, ground and FTPS reading at the FTPS connector. If you don’t see +5V reference or good ground, fix those problems before proceeding. Then check the FTPS read.

What does the code p0441 mean in ECM?
If these sensors pick up an amount of purge flow that’s different from what it should be, the ECM determines an error and triggers the code P0441: Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow. For example, the system isn’t properly purging so the amount of purge flow is lower than what’s expected.
