p2441 AIR system switching valve stuck closed bank 1

I have replaced both secondary air injection air pumps and the switching valve for bank 1 (driver seat) and I am still getting the code. I do not hear the secondary air injection air pumps going off when I cold start the truck. Ive replaced the pumps in the past with success. I also replaced the switching valve in the past with success but now I am stuck with code p2441. I wonder if it is a bad relay issue. Could someone please offer some input?

 

My guess would not be a relay but an electrical connection not being secure

After replacing the Bank 1 valve did you clear the code?

Did you also replace the switching valve for Bank #2?

 

I just checked the voltage coming out of both connections for the pumps and those read matching numbers for each pumps connections. Seems those are ok but I dont know how to test the connection for the switching valve.

I have only replaced the valve for bank 1 one time before and now again (Im almost sure the valve it had was just fine. I inspected the flaps and no corrosion. it is only a year old)

After I replaced the valve the other day it did not clear the code after driving it some miles.

 

When I have replaced 1 valve I also replace the other side also, I figure if you go to the trouble of taking off the intake manifold you might as well do both it would suck if the other one would fail after doing the work

after replacing parts the new part doesn’t always clear the code on its own. Try clearing the code with a code reader or disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes

 

I ordered replacement Air Injection Pumps for my 2011 Tundra with the 5.7 gas engine through Amazon.com. I SHOULD HAVE tested the pumps before installing them. It would have saved me a lot of time pulling them out again. Both ran, but one of them was wired backwards, which caused it to run in reverse. In essence, one pump was sucking instead of blowing like the other pump. Easy to test, just connect two wires to your battery and they run. Both should be blowing air out the exhaust, and sucking air in the intake. The pumps from Amazon.com cost $148 and had a lot of positive reviews. After removing the pumps, I tested them and found one had been wired backwards causing the pump to run, but in reverse of what it was supposed to run. Frustrated with CRAP from China, I just went to Toyota and got the pumps ($600 a piece!), installed them and have not had any problems. If you get after-market pumps, definitely TEST them before installing them.
