Check The Wiring.
Intermittent faults may occur as a result of temporary short circuits and breaks in the wiring. Jiggle the wiring at several points and in different directions to ascertain whether the wiring harness, including any connectors, is causing the trouble. Observe the multimeter, ISAT scan tool or test lamp while doing this.

- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Connect a test lamp to:
^ Battery positive (B+) and pin 2.
- Select "ACTIVATE".
- Select "SECONDARY AIR VALVE".

The lamp should flash at a frequency of 0.5 Hz for 30 seconds.

Lamp flashing?
YES: Change the secondary air injection control valve and continue with point 3
NO: Check the lead in question and repair or replace it if necessary. Then continue with point 3.





3. Final check

- Clear the diagnostic trouble code.
- Implementation of driving cycle:
^ Drive the car at varying engine loads and rpm for 5 minutes.
- Evaluation of driving cycle:
^ Check whether the diagnostic trouble code has recurred.

Has the diagnostic trouble code recurred?
YES: Continue at "Before Replacing a Control Module". Component Tests and General Diagnostics
NO: The steps taken to rectify the fault were correct.
