Default P0444 Next Step - Already replaced Purge Control Valve

I keep get the P0444 intermittently. I replaced the valve around a year ago, so that should not be the issue. Could it be a vacuum leak somewhere else in the system? I did a homebrew smoke test and I found a leak and fixed it, not sure if I have another leak.

Can you think of anything else that could lead to a P0444 - Evap control valve valve open? How do the pros figure these things out???

It is not a leak issue, it is an ELECTRICAL issue.

EVAPP to ECM drive circuit open circuit or high resistance
EVAPP failure
