Air Switching Valve Assembly ๐ ๏ธ
Why is this Part Needed?
The air switching valve assembly is essential for managing the flow of secondary air within the vehicleโs emission system. This control helps reduce harmful exhaust emissions during engine startup, ensuring your car meets environmental standards and passes inspection.
How Does it Work?
This valve directs fresh air into the exhaust stream, aiding in rapid heating of the catalytic converter. The rapid heating enables the converter to efficiently break down pollutants right after ignition when emissions are at their peak.
What Happens if it Fails?
When the air switching valve is faulty or stuck, it can cause the check engine light to appear, poor engine performance, increased exhaust emissions, and even potential damage to the catalytic converter over time. Timely replacement prevents costly repairs and maintains optimal engine function.
