So I say " yeah and its for yall to find, and it will be under warrenty cause I havent touched that system.

evaporative emissions is the vapors from your fuel system. it has nothing to do with exhaust.
if you have a code for a solenoid its usually the solenoid, wiring or a software issue.
take it to your dealer and get them to test the solenoid for you.

clear the code run it , see if it comes back on, if it were an evap "leak" then might be gas cap not on tightly, but in this case i think it's the solenoid it's self. good luck!

The EVAP system is not part of the exhaust system. However it is one of the systems tested and required to work properly for your car to pass hydrocarbon emissions tests.
Read this so that next time you can at least sound like you know a small amount when you open your mouth...http://www.autoshop101.com/forms/h62.pdf
Dude it's not your O2 sensor shorting out. There's a solenoid that is part of your fuel system the helps purge the gasoline fumes from the gas tank into a charcoal canister and then into your intake instead of out into the open air. If you jack up the rear end of your car and look by your gas tank there will be a black box with I believe a hose going to it (I believe it has a red fitting) and and electrical connection. The electrical connection attaches to the solenoid that's throwing the CEL. Why it's throwing the CEL is something we can't diagnose over CSS.net...

Seriously? 
Good to see you have the problem solved. Was it the cat not functioning properly?
EDIT - skipped the part about the O2 Sensor.

Maybe he gave us the wrong code. The O2 sensor is not part of the EVAP system
and most certainly should have nothing to do with a solenoid in the EVAP system.
P0443 = EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve 1 Control CKT
