    Thank you for this and your other videos on the secondary air pumps and bypass valves for the 4.7 L. They helped me a lot. I cursed the wire harness throughout many steps of the way, especially removing the manifold and the back bypass valves. I had to remove the back crossover pipe to remove the bolts on against the firewall, but I also had coolant leaks so I needed to change the gaskets of the pipe. I went the cheap route and tested the pump and first valve, fortunately they were working and saved myself $1200. Thank you again.

    need your help, just did this repair following your steps, I double checked my work and i think it was done properly. I drove it about 60 miles after resetting the lights and got the p1444 and 14441 codes again and car went back into limp mode? What could have i done wrong? All vacum lines have been double and triple checked.
    Actually, I think I figured it out. In my case the VSV number 1 valve was also stuck. I disconnected the vaccum line connected to it and then reconnected it, now everything seems to be working well. I think this has fixed the problem.

    I was able to replace these two check valves on my Sequoia this weekend using a 3/8 extension and knuckle for the exhaust tubes and I used a Dremel tool to make a 10 mm stubby socket that is a must have. The magnet tool was a very helpful tip, pun intended. Put an old pillow over the radiator support, it will save your ribs. Pace yourself and take deep breaths if you get into a spot that is difficult. Great video to watch as you go. Unfortunately I’ve replaced the pump and the rear check valves but have to repeat the process to replace the diverter valve cause the light is still coming on. Code P2445

    hi
    thanks for sharing amazing video
    helps a lot but i do have question i had a code (p1441 secondary air injection system switching valve no.2 bank 1 and 2 stuck open) on my 07 lexus gx470 i took it to my local mechanic he said it needs pump and i tried to show him your video as you suggest to put valves and pump together but he decided to put pump only
    now after putting pump i am having same problem and an additional code with p1441 and p1442 i am not going that mechanic anymore and dont want to spend a lot please i need help i would really appreciate your suggestions thanks

    • @HowtoAutomotive
      @HowtoAutomotive  7 лет назад

      Shery H sorry you were having car trouble's. What happens is when that pump fails particles of it get pushed through the whole system and cause other valves to stick open. The only real solution is to go back in and replace them. And if that other mechanic diagnosed it then he should go back in to repair it. I would recommend him pay for the labor you pay for the parts.

      The top cover of the air pump has an intake pipe sticking out, around 1" diameter. Under the black plastic cover is a foam filter. The air enters through the intake pipe , goes through the filter, and then into the pump. The foam deteriorates over time and starts breaking apart and goes into the air pump. It can start plugging the plastic pump vanes and cause them to seize up or break. Some pieces of foam can then go downstream to the air injection control valves and cause them to become stuck open or closed (codes P1442/ P1445). The main culprit for this very expensive repair appears caused by that foam filter. This same air pump is used on many different brands of vehicles, and has caused failures repeatedly, including on the same vehicle. Dealers and the OEM can make a lot of money by saying the codes say the pump or valves need to be replaced. When the only problem is to clean out all the old foam filter material. Toyota finally came out with an extended warranty on these parts to 10 years or 150,000 miles. Lexus has not done the same, even though their 4.7 engine uses the exact same part. That also does not help those who do not qualify, such as the many Toyota and Lexus vehicles made before 2008. I have not found any replacement filter that has been substituted for the original filter. To just keep putting back in a replacement pump with the same filter means it will happen again. I am having to replace the check valves again after 20,000 miles. This is after replacing the pump and valves by the Lexus dealer at 114,000 miles. The foam filter looks like a $1.50 part in cost. I would suggest that any repair in this system include checking the condition of the foam filter. If it has deteriorated it will have worked its way into the pump and possibly the switching valves. I would want the entire system be checked for any loose foam pieces and be cleaned. If they just replace the air pump assembly and don't check downstream the valves may become stuck open or closed. On the GX-470 this pump is located under the intake manifold and there is little room. If the mechanic can find a better external filter that will fit on the intake pipe, and remove the foam filter from inside, it will probably keep the problem from happening again. The manufacturers and dealers should have fixed this easy problem years ago. I have found videos that show the filter, filter material inside the vanes on the pump, and filter material sticking out of the valves.

    • @HowtoAutomotive
      @HowtoAutomotive  6 лет назад +1

      conquip that’s exactly what I’m seeing is that foam coming apart in the pump. I tried cleaning it one time and if you miss one little piece it may hang something up and you’re going back in there to do it again.

    Hey Brian I'm having a strange issues and I'm not sure if its related to a secondary injection pump. When I'm driving the car and accelerating the car on the road I start to hear noise like an exhaust leak. It sounds like a car with a louder exhaust is driving right next to my car. I've been told that its a leaking exhaust manifold but I don't hear this when the car is park or when I'm revving the engine. Only when I'm driving. I have no check engine lights and this has been going on for over a month now.

    Thanks very much for sharing this video! I do have a question. I am working on my 05 4Runner with the same engine. SO I have the SAI fan and diverter valve removed. Do I really need to replace the 2 check valves? Also, when I was moving side to side the cooling pipe that runs front to back, a little coolant leaked but I was able to stop it by pushing it towards the front and that stopped the leak. Question is do i need to bleed it after? Thanks very much in advance!

    • @HowtoAutomotive
      @HowtoAutomotive  7 лет назад

      John Lee I would recommend replacing the valves. You can check them now that you have room and see if they're working and if they are you leave them. You are taking a chance. You will not have to bleed the cooling system. Just make sure it's topped off.

    • @conquip
      @conquip 6 лет назад +5

      I just had mine replaced and asked for the old ones to be returned to me. Took off the cover held on by two philips screws. The code had said they were stuck in the closed position. Both had pieces of the foam filter from the pump unit stuck around the valve edges. I could actuate the valve by sucking on the pipe sticking out the side. The valve opens by vacuum being applied to the valve. The valve is kept in the closed position automatically by a spring. The loose foam filter pieces keep it from closing all the way, or in my case stuck closed, which triggers the DTC codes. It looks to me like a good cleaning of that area would have solved the problem. I had the foam filter removed and added an external filter on the intake pipe sticking out of the side of the top of the pump unit. It is important to make sure there is no foam filter pieces anywhere downstream of the original location of the foam filter. If the pump goes bad from foam filters pieces and the downstream segments are not cleaned, then the loose pieces can cause the valves to have issues.
