Code P0410 secondary air injection system -- What does this mean?
Thanks
It has a Vortech rammer, bridge, coupler,descreened MAF, Bassani X-pipe and Borla Stingers. All were in place long before the light came on. The light went out when I had the car on stands for a month while doing brakes, wheels, etc. The battery went down during that time and I assume that caused it to reset?? After I started driving it again a few days ago, it came back on after about 30 minutes of driving -- while I was driving.
Do you have any other info that may help?
Thanks again[Modified by 1g1yy, 4:03 PM 6/28/2004]
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, P0125, P0171-P0175, P0200, P0300, P0335, P0336, P0351-P0358, P0440, P0442, P0443, P0446, P0449, P1120, P1220, P1221, P1258, P1441 and HO2S DTCs are not set.
The engine is running for greater than 2.0 seconds.
The maximum air flow is 22 g/s.
The Air Fuel ratio is 14.7:1
The engine load is less than 40%.
The ignition voltage is greater than 11.7 volts.
Engine is not operating in Power Enrichment, Decel Fuel Shut-off, or Catalyst Over-temperature Modes.
The engine is operating in closed loop for greater than 15 seconds.
The engine speed is greater than 725 RPM.
The ECT is greater than 80°C (176°F) but less than 110°C (230°F).
The IAT is greater than -10°C (-14°F).
The fuel system is operating in fuel trim cells 1, 2, 4, 5, or 6
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The HO2S voltage does not go below 222 mV for 1.2 seconds, when the AIR pump turns ON during closed loop operation.
OR
The short term fuel trim does not change more than a predetermined value, 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
Important
Remove any debris from the PCM\TAC module connector surfaces before servicing the PCM\TAC module. Inspect the PCM\TAC module connector gaskets when diagnosing/replacing the modules. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminate intrusion into the PCM\TAC modules.
For any test that requires probing the PCM or a component harness connector, use the Connector Test Adapter Kit J 35616-A . Using this kit prevents damage to the harness/component terminals. Refer to Using Connector Test Adapters in Wiring Systems.
Mid '90s Camaros had a problem with water intrusion in to the AIR pump motor. The water would freeze and the frozen AIR pump motor would blow the fuse.....somthing to look at.....
