Unfortunately, I had a bad flu and was forced to change the entire engine. After the operation,
the following happened: apparently, when starting the car in cold, due to a poor adjustment of the system
engine ventilation, which 'masks' the car's CO2 emissions when cold, the control unit detects
a fault in the gas measurement and it activates the damn check engine light.
Actually, nothing happens, it's just that in cold weather, the engine's gas readings are not what
It should, in theory. But the result is that I've had that darn little light on for life!!!
The fault code is as follows: 16795 P0411 Secondary air injection system - flow
defective.
Does anyone know if there is a possibility to annul this specific ruling? In the workshop, which is of plan
Trust me, they tell me it's not worth trying to fix the breakdown. What could it be?
anything and it would cost a fortune until they found it.
If you need more explanation about the breakdown, do not hesitate to let me know. For those who do not know.
I understand that what I am talking about may be complicated to understand with my explanation.
Thank you in advance.
Well, I'm sorry for you, but a fault code cannot be canceled. The engine control unit has a
scheduled self-diagnosis of all the systems it mounts. The only option would be to tell it to the
engine control unit that does not have the secondary air system mounted and according to my experience
this does not exist... The programming of the switchboard would need to be changed and customized.
for your car and no one does that.
Maybe the breakdown is a trivial issue, a relay or a broken tube and it is worth fixing it. The air system
The secondary serves to prevent the catalyst from suffering when the engine is cold, as the mixture is very
Rich.. The catalyst needs fresh air and oxygen to oxidize that richness so that the car does not
contaminate
The error is this:
16795 419B P0411
Secondary air system
Defective circulation
Well, what does this mean?
Could it be an air intake sensor of the intake butterfly?
Could it be a defect in the lambda sensor of the catalytic converter?
Could it be a temperature measurement error?
Possible causes
Faulty Fuel Pump Relay (J17)
Hoses / Tubes of / between the defective components / blocked
Faulty secondary air injection pump (V101)
Defective Secondary Air Injection Relay Pump (J299)
Secondary air injection Solenoid valve (N112) faulty
Possible solutions
Check the fuel pump relay (J17)
Check the hoses / pipes for / between the components
Check the secondary air injection hoses / Tubes for carbonization
Check the secondary air injection pump (V101)
Check secondary air injection relay of the pump (J299)
Check secondary air injection of the solenoid valve (N112)

16795 419B P0411 Secondary air system
Defective circulation
Elimination of the fault:
Check the motor of the secondary air pump:
Check the combined valve:
Check air injection valve.
Check the flexible tubes and the connection tubes of the components:
Secondary air system
Operation
After cold start (coolant temperature +5 °C ... +33 °C) the air system
secondary injects air behind the exhaust valves for a period of 100 seconds.
In this way, the exhaust gas is enriched with oxygen, thus producing post-combustion and
shortening the catalyst heating phase. The excitation occurs from the unit of
Motronic control (J220), through the relay for the secondary air pump (J299), to the valve
of secondary air injection (N112, switching valve) and the combined valve.
