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)

  • VSV for air injection system circuit (bank 1)
  • No. 2 air switching valve (bank 1)
  • VSV for air injection system (bank 1)
  • ECM

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)

  • VSV for air injection system circuit (bank 2)
  • No. 2 air switching valve (bank 2)
  • VSV for air injection system (bank 2)
  • ECM

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)

  • Air switching valve (ASV)
  • No. 2 air switching valve (Bank 1 and/or 2)
  • VSV for air injection system (bank 1 and/or 2)
  • Air injection control driver (AID)
  • Air injection control driver circuit
  • ECM

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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

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 running or stopped, 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.
