Hi, I own 97 E 320 with 55,000 miles. Several weeks ago my check engine light came when I was pulling to a stop (my fuel tank was full, in case it matters). I've been ingoring it pretty much for several weeks, since there were no other symptoms of a problem. Finally, I got the OBDII reading at the local AutoZone. It is P0410 which stands for Secondary Air Injection System Malfunction. I did check my fuel cap and it was on tight. Can anyone suggest what this could mean and is there anything I can do myself to fix it and/or get rid of the annoying light? I am kind of hesitantabout going directly to a dealer since my experiense with them has not been positive. I appreciate any help!</P>
Thanks, Victor.<IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0"></P>

Well, it could be several things. Your right about what the code represents, the air injection system. I would start by looking your air pump over very good, search for disconnected vacuum lines. If all looks well than it's probably your air diverter valve. I don't have a picture of it but it's part of the emissions system and isn't located too far from your air pump.

Thanks a lot, Dale! I see you dedicate a lot of time to this forum.If disconnected vacuum lines ora faultyair diverter valve are a sourse of this problem and as such are corrected, should the 'chek engine' light disappear by itself or does it have to be cleared with a tool or some otherway?

Hi, I have a similar problem. Please, could you tell me what is the: "the OBDII reading at the local AutoZone"
Does the AutoZones have an instrument to interpret my Display message: "Check engine: engine electronics" No symptoms now (originally misfired for a couple of miles).
Any help would be appreciated
