Sorry, don't have my book with me. If you have the radio codes, you can always disconnect the battery for now.

secondary air injection system is linked to the canister purge valve perhaps the fault is there lately this item is well noted for problems it seems, removal of the air-box wouldn't cause this unless you removed the MAF from the system
