emissions/check engine code problems
I have a very low mileage 2001 Z06 (2300 miles). We recently moved from Ohio to North Carolina. I took the car for NC state safety and emissions inspection. The car did not pass the state emissions 3x. Each time the dealer said to drive it at least 50 miles and bring back. I drove it at least 100 miles each time before taking back, still did not pass. After the third time and while driving more miles, the check engine light came on. The dealer retreived code #P0410, replaced the secondary air injection air pump, cost $425. Still did not pass state emissions. Told me to drive it at least 50 miles and bring back. Drove it more than 50 miles over Thanksgiving, check engine light came on again. Reported to dealer service department and scheduled another service call for Monday. Also discussed issue with dealer management. Any suggestions/comments/feedback will be most appreciated.

Ahh yes. If you don't get her driven just right the "obd-II readiness monitors" can be a PITA to set. Since your driving only 50 miles or so and the check engine light comes on that's not helping. When you reset the light, it resets the rediness monitors as well.

took it back to dealer this a.m. New check engine code indicated it needs a new secondary air injector pump valve, $250. Last week replaced pump, $425. Valve has to be sourced from GM central parts warehouse in MI, 5 days delivery. Dealer says that the valve and replacement is their expense. Seems like they want my business and/or the real problem was really the valve.

do you have a cold air intake on this car?
I bought my 01 from a buddy and he had issues passing emissions as well. he took it and drove the crap out of it for a week and took it back, it passed.
Since I had it, I added a vararam and pulled the screen out of the MAF.
this set off both codes. I just reset them and keep going. as the maf got dirty the codes stopped comming. I recently cleaned it and now once a day I have to reset it.
I guess I am saying maybe it is time to stop throwing parts at it just because the code is being set. I think these codes are bull****

You may have a technician that is throwing parts at the car. The diagnostic procedure indicates this code can be set because of electrical connection problems, a pump problem, a valve problem, vacuum line restrictions, the AIR relay, etc. You need to make sure the simple things like electrical connections and vacuum line restrictions have been ruled out.
I am attaching the diagnostic below:
DTC P0410
Circuit Description
A secondary air injection (AIR) pump is used on this vehicle in order to lower the tail pipe emissions during start-up. The powertrain control module (PCM) supplies a ground to the AIR pump relay, which energizes the AIR pump.
The PCM monitors the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) voltages in order 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 monitors the short-term fuel trim values for both banks of the engine. If the AIR system is operating correctly, the HO2S voltages should be low, and the short-term fuel trim should be high.
If the PCM determines that the HO2S voltages for both banks did not respond with the expected results during the tests, DTC P0410 sets. If only 1 sensor responded, the PCM sets either DTC P1415 or DTC P1416. The active DTC indicates which bank has the inoperative AIR system.
Conditions for Running the DTC
DTCs P0101-P0103, P0107, P0108, P0112, P0113, P0117, P0118, P0125, P0171-P0175, P0200, P0300, P0335, P0336, P0351-P0358, P0440, P0442, P0443, P0446, P0449, P1120, P1220, P1221, P1258, or P1441 are not set.
The fuel level is more than 12.5 percent but less than 87.5 percent.
The engine is running for more than 30 seconds.
The maximum air flow is 22 g/s.
The air fuel ratio is 13.125:1.
The engine load is less than 40 percent.
The ignition voltage is more than 11.7 volts.
Vehicle speed is more than 15 K/H (25 MPH).
The engine is not operating in any of the following modes:
Power enrichment
Decel fuel cutoff mode
The catalyst over temperature
The engine is operating in a closed loop for more than 15 seconds.
The engine speed is more than 850 RPM.
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between than -10°C to +110°C (14°F-230°F).
The intake air temperature (IAT) is between -10°C to +100°C (14°F-212°F).
The fuel system is operating in fuel trim cells 1, 2, 4, 5, or 6.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
If the AIR pump turns ON during a closed loop operation and the HO2S voltage does not fall below 222 mV for 1.3 seconds.
Or
If the AIR pump turns ON during a closed loop operation and the short-term fuel trim does not change more than a predetermined amount.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
Important
Before you service the PCM or the throttle actuator control (TAC), remove any debris from the module connector surfaces, and from the module connector gaskets. Verify that the gaskets are correctly installed. The gaskets prevent debris from contaminating the modules.
For any test that requires probing the PCM or probing a component harness connector, use the Connector Test Adapter Kit J 35616-A . Using this kit prevents damage to the component terminals and to the harness. Refer to Using Connector Test Adapters in Wiring Systems.

Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
If DTCs P0412 or P0418 are set, diagnose those DTCs first.
Inspects for excess resistance in all of the circuits that are associated with the AIR system.
This step tests for the battery voltage at the AIR pump relay.
This step tests for power to the AIR pump.
This step tests the ground circuit for the AIR pump.
This step tests for a grounded circuit between the AIR pump and the AIR pump relay.
A restriction in a hose or in a pipe, between the shut-off valve and the point where the system branches to each bank, causes the setting of this DTC . Inspect for kinks or for blockages from the AIR pump to the connection point where the AIR system divides.

I am attaching the diagnostic below:
DTC P0410
Circuit Description
A secondary air injection (AIR) pump is used on this vehicle in order to lower the tail pipe emissions during start-up. The powertrain control module (PCM) supplies a ground to the AIR pump relay, which energizes the AIR pump.
The PCM monitors the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) voltages in order 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 monitors the short-term fuel trim values for both banks of the engine. If the AIR system is operating correctly, the HO2S voltages should be low, and the short-term fuel trim should be high.
If the PCM determines that the HO2S voltages for both banks did not respond with the expected results during the tests, DTC P0410 sets. If only 1 sensor responded, the PCM sets either DTC P1415 or DTC P1416. The active DTC indicates which bank has the inoperative AIR system.

If the AIR pump turns ON during a closed loop operation and the HO2S voltage does not fall below 222 mV for 1.3 seconds.
Or
If the AIR pump turns ON during a closed loop operation and the short-term fuel trim does not change more than a predetermined amount.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure.
