Code 29, Secondary Air Injection: Notes

Ignition voltage is supplied voltage when ignition is on. PCM controls air pump relay by providing a ground through one of its Quad-Driver Modules (QDM). When relay is actuated, terminal is grounded and its monitored voltage will be low. When an output is off, its terminal voltage will be high. Each QDM has a separate fault line to indicate presence of a current fault to control module central processor.

1. Code 29 will set if the PCM detects the wrong voltage potential. Test will determine if relay can be controlled by PCM.
2. This check can detect a partially shorted coil which would cause excessive current flow. Excessive current flow to a QDM will be detected as a fault and set a code.
3. The remaining checks will identify a circuit problem that has caused an excessive current flow or inoperative relay.
