DESCRIPTION
The Secondary Air injection (AIR) system consists of an air pump, the Air Switching Valve (ASV), a pressure sensor, the Air Injection Control Driver (AID) and the ECM. For a short time after cold engine starts, the AIR system pumps secondary air to the exhaust port of the cylinder head to purify the exhaust emissions. The secondary air is supplied by the air pump and is pumped to the exhaust port through the ASV.
The AID drives the ASV and the air pump according to command signals transmitted by the ECM. The pressure sensor detects the pressure in the secondary air passage when the AIR system is ON and OFF, and transmits a pressure signal to the ECM.
The AID is not only equipped to drive the pump and valve, but also with a diagnosis function to detect malfunctions in the AIR system circuit.
HINT:
As a large current is required to drive the air pump and ASV, an AID is installed to this system.

DTC No. |
DTC Detection Condition |
Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
|
P2431 P2436 |
Pressure sensor indicates less than 45.6 kPa (342 mmHg), or more than 135 kPa (1013 mmHg) (2 trip detection logic) |
|
|
P2432 P2437 |
While engine running, voltage output of pressure sensor remains below 0.5 V (1 trip detection logic) |
|
|
P2433 P2438 |
While engine running, voltage output of pressure sensor remains above 4.5 V (1 trip detection logic) |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the pressure in the secondary air passage using the pressure sensor located on the air switching valve in the secondary air injection system.
If there is a defect in the sensor or the sensor circuit, the voltage level deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this deviation as a malfunction in the pressure sensor or circuit and stores a DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PRESSURE SENSOR - ECM) |
(a) Disconnect the pressure sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connectors.

INSPECT AIR SWITCHING VALVE (PRESSURE SENSOR) |
(a) Connect a pressure gauge to the air pressure sensor as shown in the illustration.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Air pump pressure (absolute) and Air Pump2 Pressure (Absolute).
(f) Check that the pressure displayed on the Techstream fluctuates when applying the pressure to the pressure sensor with the pressure gauge.
OK:
Pressure fluctuates in response to pressure applied with pressure gauge.
