P0444 Code Mazda 3 2011 Hatchback

[416GXM3]

Hi ANyone have any experience with this code. I got this code and want to figure out if I go straight to replacing the he Evaporative Emission System (EVAP) canister purge volume control solenoid valve or if there is anything I should be looking at before buying the part.

If anyone has solutions, diagnostic suggestions or experience dealing with this would be greatly appreciated.

I have already tried the following:
Check Gas cap (cleared codes) it came back
Check Hoses for wear and tear (nothing loose)

Symptoms:
Terrible gas mileage
Check Engine Light persistent even after clearing it
