• When the AIR solenoid valve is turned off, atmospheric air forms in the actuator and the valve is closed by
spring force, thereby blocking the path.
• The reed valve provided in the AIR control valve prevents reverse flow of exhaust gas and protects the AIR
pump.

SECONDARY AIR INJECTION (AIR) SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION

• Switches the path of intake manifold negative pressure between the vacuum chamber and the AIR control
valve.

SECONDARY AIR INJECTION (AIR) SOLENOID VALVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION

• Mainly consists of a coil, spring, plunger, and filter.
When Energized
• The solenoid coil becomes an electromagnet and pulls in the plunger. This opens an airflow path between
ports A and B, applying intake manifold negative pressure to the actuator of the AIR control valve.
When Not Energized
• The path of intake manifold negative pressure is closed, and the path between B and C is opened, causing
the actuator of the AIR control valve to be open to the atmosphere.

SECONDARY AIR INJECTION (AIR) PUMP FUNCTION

• Pressurizes outside air and discharges secondary air.
• Secondary air from the AIR pump is pumped to the exhaust ports through the AIR control valve.
