    The Ethos does not have Bi-directional controls, it is a code and data scanner only, so you will need a different scanner to do this.

        It will tell you whether the secondary air system is commanded On or Off, but no voltage readings.

        The solenoid is easily accessible, right on top of the engine, and you can take your measurements.
