will this hurt my car????? a year ago i did my exhaust and the air pump wasnt hooked back up so i removed the componets i could get to and the relay. ever since it has been throwing a code, AIR relay, so i tried to get my inspection and couldnt (of course) so i went out and bought the relay and have it in there so cancel the code. my question is having this relay in there without having the acual AIR parts hooked up messmy car up?

I still think you're gonna get a different code even with the relay hooked up. The AIR pump will run a short check after warmup - turn on the pump for a second and see if the O2s showed an increase in air. If not it's gonna throw a code for the system not working since it's not hooked up.

i didnt remove the acual pump and i just checked it after it cooled down and the pump turns on and it stayed on for aprox. 1-2 minutes and turned off. it did not throw any codes.
