great job Mike great points I like the part where the air injection MAF would not respond to the air pump coming on the bimmer because of the blockage. you isolated the problem and got it to flow it really shows the effect of a totally pluged cat convertor on the engine MAF same principal thanks again

Very true..crazy to think a 10 dollar part can take out a 200 dollar part.. lol Always find its the check valve/water intrusion that kills them. I was surprised to see that relay on the Chev tho.. What a great pair to do in one show. 2 different kinds of scenarios. (: Makes me think/worry about my own 530 its an 07 but I think they are still the same setup. Lol Thanks Again KB

Does the extra ground wire dissipate the energy left in the air pump motor because its still spinning after its turned off?
@GoTechTraining6 жыл бұрын
Well done John, it gives the energy a path to ground. After the pump is shut off it goes from consuming power to creating power...that power needs somewhere to go. Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

@ToddErickson3656 жыл бұрын
The power side of the air pump is grounded when the relay is off to stop the pump motor spinning quickly (stop now). You will see the same thing on wiper motor park position switches to park the wipers qiuckly.

Todd, I like the theory, but the pump takes time to wind down. It doesn't stop right away. Other ideas? :) Mike Becker, Technical Services Instructor
@danc20142 жыл бұрын
Motors will create a large inductive current when disconnected, it is best to flow it to ground VS spike the power line. Most relays will have just a diode for the same reason.

I hope you can answer. My E46 330i 2003 I still having the P0411 and is the only code getting I replaced the old valve and the one is also is new like this video it doesn’t have a vacuum hose. Pump works with no problem. Turns on 5 to 10 seconds, Hoses are new, Already checked the under the hood fuses 20A and they are all ok. And also the one inside the compartment box the Fuse 50A is good also. What a my missing? The Secondary Air Pump MAF Sensor or the Relay behind the fuse box in the compartment Box. That controls the SAP MAF? I would appreciate tons a response for this cause I truly can’t find it what’s the cause.

Hey Javier, thanks! It's possible you could have a restriction in the system. Maybe the air from the pump isn't actually getting into the engine? Most vehicles have valves/solenoids that could carbon up. Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

How can I get a hold of you directly? (PM you) 2000 Malibu 3.1L vin code J secondary A.I.R. code P0410 keeps on popping up and Ivan fixed all of the vacuum leaks around that system but there is some kind of a vacuum solenoid that only runs with the A.I.R. during cold start! But I keep on getting told that it's called a A.I.R. diverter valve from one person then when I go to a auto parts store they list the check valves as the diverter valves and the A.I.R. diverter valve as a EGR CONTROL SOLENOID! I can send you pix of what I am talking about! U have screenshot shots! I also wanted to know if Wells makes these kind of parts. If so I would like the part numbers and where can I pick them up at!
