Chart A2-5, Fuel Injector Circuit Check (Engine No-Start): Notes
Using a Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection (SFI) system, PCM controls each individual injector by providing a ground. With ignition switch in ON or START position (engine running), PCM will energize/de-energize fuel injector coil. With coil energized, a plunger is activated, allowing pressurized fuel to be sprayed through fuel injectors into combustion chamber where it is mixed with air from intake manifold, creating proper air/fuel mixture needed for combustion.
NOTE:
Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.
- Checks for proper fuel pressure.
- Checks if PCM is controlling ground path of fuel injectors.
- Checks fuel injector for correct resistance.
- Checks for voltage at fuel injector.
- Checks for an open in ground circuit and for a faulty PCM.
