DTC P2258: - SECONDARY AIR INJECTION (AIR) SYSTEM CONTROL A CIRCUIT HIGH

Description:  The AIR system monitor circuit is high, indicating the secondary AIR pump is on although the secondary AIR pump was commanded off by the powertrain control module (PCM).
Possible Causes: 
  • AIR relay fault - stuck closed
  • Secondary AIR pump fault - circuit open in motor
  • Open ground to secondary AIR pump
  • Open AIR monitor circuit between the secondary AIR pump and the PCM
  • Short to voltage in the AIR relay to secondary AIR pump voltage circuit
Diagnostic Aids:  The AIR monitor circuit PCM input contains a pull up voltage through a resistance internal to the PCM. This voltage is normally held low by the resistance path through the secondary AIR pump when the secondary AIR pump is off.
