Re: Service Vehicle Soon light and Air Pump Relay

They plugged the car into the diagnostic to get the code that told them the relay was shot (p0410), what else could be going on here?

I am getting an awful screeching noise from the passenger side air duct upon first starting it in the morning, it sounds like the fan in there needs some lubricant. Could that be related to this air pump problem? I'm very frustrated with this light!
There is a GM technical bulletin related to your complaint..it states to replace the relay and the pump if damaged...most likely they didn't replace the pump as needed
Service Engine Lamp Illuminated, DTC P0410 (Replace Air Injection Reaction Pump Relay) #00-06-04-048 - (11/20/2000)
Service Engine Lamp Illuminated with DTC P0410 (Replace Air Injection Reaction (AIR) Pump Relay)
1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue

with 3.5L Engine (VIN H - RPO LX5) -- YF5, NG1 or NB1 Emissions

"GM of Canada" and "IPC" Dealers are not authorized to utilize this Service Bulletin.

Condition
Some customers may comment that the Service Engine Soon lamp is Illuminated.

Cause
The Air Injection Reaction (AIR) pump relay may be sticking in the closed position, which may cause air pump damage.

Correction
If DTC P0410 is set and normal diagnostics lead to the replacement of the AIR pump, inspect the AIR relay in the Bussed Electrical Center (BEC). If the P/N is 12193604, replace the relay with P/N 12177236, as well as the AIR pump.
