### DTC P0412 Secondary Air Injection System Switching Valve "A" Circuit

## for Preparation Click here

## DESCRIPTION

The secondary Air Injection (AI) system consists of an air pump, Air Switching Valve (ASV), Air Injection Control Driver (AID) and the ECM. When a cold engine is started, the AI system immediately pumps the secondary air to the exhaust port of the cylinder head to purify the exhaust emissions.
The ECM transmits command signals to the AID to drive the ASV and air pump. Then the AID drives them.
The AID has a function for pump and valve driving, and also has a diagnosis function for detecting malfunctions in the AI system circuit.

HINT:

  The AID supplies the large amount of current required to drive the air pump and ASV.

## MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Air Injection Control Driver (AID) detects an open or short in the air pump and ASV circuit according to the terminal voltage and sends a signal as the diagnostic information to the ECM.
When a cold engine is started, the ECM immediately transmits command signals to the AID to drive the air pump and ASV.
The AID outputs the ASV malfunction signal to the ECM if either: 1) the AID receives the command signal from the ECM to drive the ASV, but the AID output voltage to the ASV is low, or 2) the AID does not receive the command signal from the ECM to drive the ASV, but the AID output voltage to the ASV is high.
The ECM sets the ETC based on the diagnostic signal from the AID.

## WIRING DIAGRAM

## INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

  The diagnostic information output from the AID can be confirmed by connecting an oscilloscope to the diagnostic information terminal of the AID.

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
2. Connect an oscilloscope probe to the AIDI terminal of the ECM.
3. On the tester, select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
4. Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
5. Monitor the output voltage of the AID (duty ratio signal).

HINT:

  Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
