Air Pump electrical plug idea for override.
I removed my air pump and have the factory plug just hanging there. Instead of tuning the pump out, Im sure there is a way to over ride and trick the computer with the factory plug.
The issue is Im not sure where to start. All that should need to be done is to have the computer think the pump is recieving signal and it wont throw a light, Correct?

At least your thinking! But,,,,,,,,,, That will NOT work..The pump pushes fresh air in the manifolds and causes the O2 sensors to read lean a specific amount. The PCM looks for that change when the test is in progress.
Sorry.. Just as easy to have that PID tuned out.
