i also did a KOER and pulled
#21 - ECT out of test range(0.3-3.7 volts) WIch means Electronic Code Test
but it still pulled @94 & #44
Thermactor air injection system inoperative (LEft and Right side respectivly)

can some one tell me if the thermactor is a problem or not and if the #21 code means the #'s 94 &44 are false

The canister purge solenoid (CANP) is something like.......



ECT = Engine Coolant Temperature sensor...a code 21 gets logged if you run the KOER self-test if the engine temp is below 180° when the test is run. To confirm it is a "false" code, make sure the engine is above that temp and rerun the KOER.
