2003 996 Cab, 68k miles

I have the Durametric code reader software

The check engine light has come on 2 times with the following codes

P0491 Secondary air system bank 1

P0492 Secondary air system bank 2

And 9114 PCM control unit. The software does not allow me to clear this code

Any help with the codes and cause is greatly appreciated.

Time to finish the thread.

The final problem was a leaking vacuum reservoir (part 933 110 140 03) behind/lower then the alternator. I would never had found this leak as a DIYer. The shop smoke tested the system and found the leak. The leak was not obvious thus the post and part number.

part $27

Diagnostic prior to repair 1.5 hours

Alternator R&I 1.0

Retest 1 hour
