Fuel Injector Circuit

CAUTION:

Check or repair only faulty parts.
After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (EXCEPT FOR STI)>Clear Memory Mode>OPERATION , and inspection mode Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (EXCEPT FOR STI)>Inspection Mode>PROCEDURE .

Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance.

CHECK OPERATION OF EACH FUEL INJECTOR .
While cranking the engine, check each fuel injector emits operating sound. Use a sound scope or listen by attaching a screwdriver to the injector for this check.

Does the fuel injector emit operating sound?

Yes: Check the fuel pressure. Ref. to MECHANICAL(EXCEPT FOR STI)>Fuel Pressure>INSPECTION .

No: Go to 2
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FUEL INJECTOR CONNECTOR .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and fuel injector connector.

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes: Go to 3

No: Repair the open circuit of the harness between the ECM connector and fuel injector connector.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FUEL INJECTOR CONNECTOR .
Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and chassis ground.

Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

Yes: Go to 4

No: Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and fuel injector connector.
CHECK EACH FUEL INJECTOR .
Check each fuel injector. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (EXCEPT FOR STI)>Fuel Injector>INSPECTION .

Is the check result OK?

Yes: Go to 5

No: Replace the faulty fuel injector. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (EXCEPT FOR STI)>Fuel Injector .
CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT .
Check for poor contact of ECM connector.

Is there poor contact of ECM connector?

Yes: Repair the poor contact of ECM connector.

No: Inspection using "General Diagnostic Table". Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (EXCEPT FOR STI)>General Diagnostic Table>INSPECTION .
