P0443 indicates an electrical failure in the EVAP canister purge valve coil circuit. It is completely unrelated to the EGR system. It is also not a problem with the vacuum lines.
Most likely, it is a corroded or damage wire or connector. It is also possible that the PCM has a failure.
Here's the list of possibilities from the service CD:
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0443 indicates a failure in the EVAP canister purge valve circuit.
Possible causes:
-- VPWR circuit open.
-- EVAP canister purge valve circuit open.
-- EVAP canister purge valve circuit shorted to PWR GND.
-- EVAP canister purge valve circuit shorted to VPWR.
-- Damaged EVAP canister purge valve.
-- Damaged PCM.
Possible causes:
