0491 code popped how to troubleshoot and fix it?
Daughters car engine light came on.took to take 5 oil nearest her. They said 0491. But has everything from a 400 dollar air pump to hose leak to bad relay, how to figure out what it really is?
Questa è una buona domanda?
1. The "Cold Start" Test
Pop the hood and have someone start the car when the engine is completely cold. You should hear a high-pitched "vacuum cleaner" or "jet engine" sound coming from the front of the engine for about 30–90 seconds.
If you hear nothing: The pump is likely not getting power or has failed internally.
If you hear the pump but it sounds very loud/raspy: Look for a cracked hose.
