Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at a fuel injector.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 1 or A and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition circuit fuse is open, test or replace the fuel injector.
  3. Ignition OFF, connect a J 35616-200  between the control circuit terminal 2 or B and the ignition circuit terminal 1 or A of each fuel injector one at a time.
  4. Engine cranking, the test lamp should flash for each injector.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module (ECM).
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the fuel injector. Refer to Fuel Injector Diagnosis .
