like valves/switches/etc. IIRC you're looking at around $100 in parts. Do not know effort required to replace. A good home auto mechanic could do the job.
If air pump working no need to replace that. If air pump *not* working that needs to be dealt with before other things. When engine first started cold -- after sitting all night -- air pump should come on and run for 30 to 60 seconds.
You can hear it... Sounds like hoover vacuum cleaner running in distance. Roll down windows before you start engine.
If air pump not running it may not be cold enough to trigger it on. I don't have info which details this handy but you'd want to make sure that ambient temperature not the cause air pump not being switched on.
