I took it toAutozone and got the following code/definition:

P0410
Definition
aa Secondary Air injection system fault

Explanation
aa The Air injection system is monitored for faults

Probably cause
aa1 Circuit relay defective or fuse open
aa2 Check connector and wiring
aa3 Air pump defective or hoses blocked

I’ve tried to follow these posts to see what the most popular solution isbut I’m still a little confused as to what I should try first. I’m not at all mechanicallyinclined but feel that I could follow some general troubleshooting directions if I knew what to try first.Hopefully, I will can get this fixed myself quickly so I can get it sold. Otherwise, Iwill pay for the fix myself before relisting it.

Is there a general consensus out there as to what the most likely issue is forthis error code? Or what I should try first?

Appreciate the help!
Look at the relay control module for burnt and seized contacts.
Look for a bad earth at the wire attached to the front of the air pump.
Does the pump make any noise when the engine is started.
