Default Secondary Air Injection Malfunction??

I recently installed MTI S2 LS1/X1 cam in my car..I drove it around with no problems at all with my cutout open... Then I closed it and drove it 4 hours home and the SES light came on all the way home...Ran it through the computer at Autozone and "Secondary Air Injection Malfunction" was the problem <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> I have Mac Headers through stock catback and a 3"Cutout (which was closed when this happened"/ Any input as to what the hell it could be? Please anyone with a similiar experience or know what it is post

Default Re: Secondary Air Injection Malfunction??

Not sure if it's related to programming with that cam or not, but here is the process to troubleshoot it. Who installed your cam? Did they/you check all electrical connections? Where is your cutout?

Circuit Description

An AIR pump is used on this vehicle to lower tail pipe emissions on start-up. The PCM supplies a ground to the AIR pump relay, which energizes the AIR pump.

The PCM monitors the HO2S voltages to diagnose the AIR system.

During the AIR test the PCM activates the AIR pump during closed loop operation. When the AIR is activated, the PCM monitors the HO2S voltages and short term fuel trim values for both banks of the engine. If the AIR system is operating properly, the HO2S voltages should go low and the short term fuel trim should go high.

If the PCM determines that the HO2S voltages for both banks did not respond as expected during the tests, DTC P0410 sets. If only one sensor responded, the PCM sets either a DTC P1415 or P1416 to indicate on which bank the AIR system is inoperative.

Conditions for Running the DTC

- DTCs P0101, P0102, P0103, P0107, P0108, P0112, P0113, P0117, P0118, P0300, P0325, P0327, P0335, P0441, P0502, P0503, and HO2S DTCs not set.
- The engine operating.
- The engine operates for greater than 15 seconds in short term fuel trim cells 2, 5, and 20.
- Engine speed is greater than 550 RPM.
- Maximum air flow is 22 g/s.
- ECT is greater than 50°C (122°F).
- IAT is greater than 10°C (50°F).
- Ignition voltage is greater than 11.6 volts.
- Engine load is less than 30%.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
- HO2S voltage does not go below 222 mV for 0.9 seconds when the AIR pump turns ON during closed loop operation.
- Short term fuel trim does not go above a predetermined amount when the AIR pump turns ON during closed loop operation.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

- The PCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.

- The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the PCM stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the PCM records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The PCM writes the conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

- The PCM turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A last test failed, or current DTC, clears when the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Use a scan tool in order to clear the MIL and the DTC.

Diagnostic Aids

- Using Freeze Frame and/or Failure Records data may aid in locating an intermittent condition. If you cannot duplicate the DTC, the information included in the Freeze Frame and/or Failure R ecords data can aid in determining how many miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and Pass Counter can also aid determining how many ignition cycles the diagnostic reported a pass and/or a fail. Operate the vehicle within the same freeze frame conditions (RPM, load, vehicle speed, temperature etc.) that you observed. This isolates when the DTC failed.

- For an intermittent, refer to Symptoms .

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

2) If DTCs P0412 and P0418 are also set at the same time, this indicates the AIR pump fuse is open.

4) Excessive resistance in either the control circuit or the B+ circuit will cause an inoperative relay. Command each relay ON and OFF as necessary to verify operation. This step verifies the AIR pump operation.

9) This step isolates if the condition is the AIR integral stop valve or the AIR Bleed Valve solenoid. If no air is present at the outlet of the pump, this indicates a condition with the integral stop valve or circuit.

20) When an engine is started, a vacuum is created in the AIR system. This vacuum causes the integral stop valve from not opening which causes DTC P0410 to set. When the engine is started the PCM commands the AIR Bleed Valve solenoid to open and relieve the vacuum in the AIR system. This step verifies the solenoid is capable of relieving the vacuum.
