Did you get an error number?  Only thing I can find is 64 Air Switching Valve (The air switching valve controls the flow of the secondary air by opening and shutting the solenoid valve.)  I'll see what else I can find on it.

Ok, looks like it's on the right side.  You have to remove the middle fairing.  Looks like its just to the left (as you look at it) of the right side air intake and down a bit.  Hopefully someone will chime in on photos as its going to be tonight before I can get to it.

The KDS don't show any number, just the message.
I'm going to check it again.

I don't know if this is it or not, but I copied all the troubleshooting stuff out of my manual..

The Air Switching valve connection was loose.
But the KDS called it "2nd air solenoid"

Yep, terminology can be important.  It is irritating when names don't match.  I run into it all the time both in the physical world and non-physical (software) world.
