Secondary Air Injection Pump Relay, Checking

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

Test requirements 

Test procedure 

-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .

Checking voltage 

-- Remove the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299-.

-- Using a multimeter, check the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket 1 (relay terminal 30) to Ground.

Specified value: Battery voltage.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

-- Check the wiring connection from the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket 1 (relay terminal 30) to the Battery positive cable for an open circuit or high resistance. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for pin locations.

-- Check the wiring connections for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

-- Using a multimeter, check the resistance of the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket 2 (relay terminal 87) to Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Motor -V101- harness connector, terminal 2.

Specified value: 1.5 Ω Max.

-- Switch the ignition OFF.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

-- Check the circuit from the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket 2 (relay terminal 87) through fuse 27 (for 2009 - 2010) or fuse 21 (for 2011 >) in Fuse Box B, out to the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Motor -V101- connector, terminal 2 for an open circuit or a short circuit to Ground. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for pin locations.

-- Check the wiring for an open circuit, high resistance or a short to Battery (+) or Ground.

-- Check the electrical connections for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection and replace fuse if blown.

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking wiring 

-- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to the Repair information.

-- Using a multimeter, check the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket 4 (relay terminal 85) to the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical harness connector T94 for resistance. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for pin locations.

Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299- socket/terminal Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical connector T94 terminal or test box socket
4/85 94

Specified value: 1.5 Ω Max.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

-- Check the wiring for an open circuit, a short circuit to each other, Battery (+) or Ground.

-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is found in the wiring and voltage supply was OK:

-- Replace the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) Pump Relay -J299-.

-- Erase the DTC memory.

-- Perform a road test to verify repair.

Final procedures 

After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

  1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
  2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
  3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
