Had checked again, advised purge valve under left rear fender, replaced(still on). Had a smoke test for leaks done, new valve under fender leaking, replaced again (light still on). Had computer reset, computer shows no problem, light off. Four days later light back on again?

Are you sure? Each code is preceded by an alpha letter. (B, P, C, U) i.E PO441. The only code for that model ending in 0441 is a body or B0441. If that is the correct code, B0441, that's an HVAC issue.
