I have an 07 s2000 and behind the front bumber and just infront of the wheel there is a black electric pump, mine has shattered , do any of you know what it is for?

cheers

 

i believe that is an AIR pump used for emmisions or vaccum lines but not completely sure

 

interesting...i thought ap2's didn't have an air pump?

 

06 and later US spec cars don't have a air pump. It could be a pump for the headlight washers on euro cars. The UK forum may have more info.

Moving to the UK forum.

 

Pictures.?

 

It's the air pump. All UK cars have one including later DBW cars.

Chris.

 

Not all S2k's are the same in all markets. Good to know

 

 

Is that all it is for, emissions? Would the pump be any reason for my car idiling fast, around 2000rpm? If it doenst do anything apart from sort emissions would it be fine to run around without one for a while?

cheers guys

 

i'd pull the fuse to make sure it doesn't overheat the contactor/relay (39794-PCX-023)

there's a bulletin for melting airpumps that would also damage the contactor/relay...probably due to overloading...
