Default Code #0411

Well, my CEL made it's very first appearance today, and it just so happed that I was on my way to Autozone. After the guy ran the codes, the only fault code that came back was 0411, or Secondary Air Injection System - Incorrect Flow Detected. Basically what I've gathered from searching through old threads is that it's either a bad secondary air pump, or a break in a vacuum line (please correct me if I'm leaving outany possible causes). So, my question is pretty much this: Is this an easy fix?? Or better yet, will this be covered by my warranty (warranty is only powertrain, that's why I'm asking)??

Thanks in advance.

I think if it's covered by any warranty, it'll be the emissions warranty. I'm surprised that that caused a CEL though. I have the same code and it has never thrown a check engine light. If the pump is bad, it'll be a couple hundred to replace...hoses would be less, obviously, and if it's a crack, you could probably get away with taping the offender. I don't really know how to tell if the pump itself is bad, but I guess if you can't find any cracked hoses or leaks, that would be a good indicator. Check out the crankcase breather hose...replacing my broken one didn't cure the code, but I think I've read that it has for other people and it sure is easy to find. Ask a tech about why it's throwing a CEL...that's weird.
