DTC P2441 Secondary Air Injection System Switching Valve Stuck Close Bank1

DESCRIPTION




DTC Detection Condition:




The Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system pumps air to the exhaust port to accelerate the activation of the catalyst. The secondary air injection system consists of the ECM, air pump, Air Switching Valve (ASV) (EASV), Air Switching Valve No. 2 (ASV No. 2) (ASV1, 2), pressure sensor and Air Injection Control Driver (AID). The Air Switching Valve (ASV) (EASV) is an electromagnetic type and Air Switching Valve No. 2 (ASV No. 2) (ASV1, 2) is a vacuum type.

The secondary air injection system pumps pressurized air to the exhaust port by the air pump through the ASV and ASV No. 2. The ASV assists the ASV No. 2. The ASV No. 2 also controls air supply.

The ECM sends signals to the AID, and then the AID operates the air pump and ASV. The pressure sensor detects pressure and exhaust pulsation in the system when the system operates and when it does not operate, and sends the data to the ECM.

Typical Malfunction Thresholds (Part 1):




Typical Malfunction Thresholds (Part 2):




The ECM detects pressure change with the pressure sensor to determine malfunctioning parts in the system, and stores the DTCs. The ECM measures pressure and/or exhaust pulsation of the system at 6 points, A to F, when the air injection system is in operation or when not in operation. When the pressure is high, the ECM determines that the pump operates. When exhaust pulsation is detected, the ECM determines that the Air Switching Valve (ASV) is open. The ECM determines malfunction parts based on the measured value, and stores the DTCs.

Points A and B: ECM detects pressure changes (decrease), and determines that the No. 2 Air Switching Valve (No. 2 ASV) is open.

Points C and F: ECM detects pressure and exhaust pulsation, and determines the pressure pattern of the system.

Point D: ECM operates the system, as indicated by the dashed lines, to determine which of the No. 2 ASV is malfunctioning only when pressure changes cannot be detected at point A or B.

Point E: ECM detects exhaust pulsation to determine the condition of the system.

MONITOR RESULT

Refer to Checking Monitor Status. Mode 6 Data




The test value and test limit information are described as shown in the following table. Check the monitor result and test values after performing the monitor drive pattern (refer to "Confirmation Monitor").

- MID (Monitor Identification Data) is assigned to each emissions-related component.
- TID (Test Identification Data) is assigned to each test value.
- Scaling is used to calculate the test value indicated on generic OBD II scan tools.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT: Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air/fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.
