Well, the previous owner suggested to start with the intake, also there's a air control solenoid valve that can be connected backwards.

It's not hard to check and should only take 15 minutes to verify. If that isn't your problem then you move on to the next step.

Charlie has a good point too, when you start the car you should hear the air pump turn on on after startup.

a little tough to explain... turn the key to 'on' and sit and listen.
and I wasn't saying that the problem is your hoses being crossed, but thats a very common mistake and very few details were given about the light and at what time it came on.

There are plenty of resources on this website to fix the problem without paying a stealership to do it though.

when u first start uer engine if u stand in front of uer car under uer right side bumper cover is where the pump is located. u should hear a click flowed by hipitch whistle.

uer current dtc if for secondary intake system circuit. Circuit meaning electric circuit.

could be a: blown fuse, defective relay, open in harness or defective air pump.

take a good look at uer front bumper. has it beed removed? or has the car been involved in a front end impact?
