DTC P1441 Stuck Open in Secondary Air Injection Vacuum Switching Valve Bank 1
DTC P1444 Stuck Open in Secondary Air Injection Vacuum Switching Valve Bank 2
DTC P2440 Secondary Air Injection System Switching Valve Stuck Open Bank1
DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0412 (Click here).| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
| P1441 | No. 2 air switching valve (bank 1) stuck open: The pressure sensor detects exhaust pulsation, when both of No. 2 air switching valve OFF (and air switching valve ON). (2 trip detection logic) |
|
| P1444 | No. 2 air switching valve (bank 2) stuck open: The pressure sensor detects exhaust pulsation, when both of No. 2 air switching valve OFF (and air switching valve ON). (2 trip detection logic) |
|
| P2440 | No. 2 air switching valve stuck open: The pressure sensor detects exhaust pulsation when the system is not operating (both of No. 2 air switching valve OFF, and air switching valve OFF and air pump OFF). This DTC means air switching valve and "No. 2 air switching valve bank 1 or bank 2" are stuck open. (1 trip detection logic) |

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
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.

WIRING DIAGRAM
Refer to DTC P0412 (Click here).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.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 with CAN VIM.
Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
Read DTCs.
- Result:
Display (DTC Output) Proceed To "P1441 and/or P1444" and P2440 A P1441 and/or P1444 B "P1441 and/or P1444 and/or P2440" and other DTCs C
- HINT:
- If any DTCs other than P1441, P1444 or P2440 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
