Non-Turbo

Fuel Injector Circuit:

To test the Injectors, located between the fuel rail and the head, proceed as follows.

OSCILLOSCOPE TESTS
1. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature. Maintain idle speed for testing.
2. connect the scope pick-up probe to the test point 1 as shown in the system schematic.

No. 1 Oscilloscope Display:

3. Compare the scope pattern to the No. 1 oscilloscope display.
4. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature. Maintain idle speed for testing.
5. Connect the scope pick-up probe to the test point 2 as shown in the system schematic.

No. 2 Oscilloscope Display:

6. Compare the scope pattern to the No. 2 oscilloscope display.
7. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature. Maintain idle speed for testing.
8. Connect the scope pick-up probe to the test point 3 as shown in the system schematic.

No. 3 Oscilloscope Display:

9. Compare the scope pattern to the No. 3 oscilloscope display.
10. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature. Maintain idle speed for testing.
If scope patterns are not as depicted in images, continue with the rest of the test procedures before replacing the assembly.

Operational Test:

FUNCTIONAL TEST
Using a stethoscope, check the operational sound (tick) made by the injectors (one at a time) during idle or cranking. Check that the sound is produced at shorter intervals as the engine speed increases.

NOTE: Other injectors may produce sound as they operate even if the injector being tested does not operate. Ensure that the sound from an adjacent injector is not being transmitted along the delivery pipe to an inoperative injector.

Resistance Test:

INJECTOR RESISTANCE
1. Disconnect the connector for the injector.
2. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

Standard Value
2 - 3 ohm (20°C/68°F)

Injector Resistor Test:

INJECTOR RESISTOR TEST
1. Disconnect the connector for the injector.
2. Measure the resistance between the terminals as shown.

Standard Value
5.5 - 6.5 ohm (20°C/68°F)

HARNESS TEST
1. Disconnect the injector connector and turn the key to the ON position.

NOTE: Power is supplied to the injectors from the control relay, through the injector resistor and then to the #1 terminals of the injectors.

2. Using a Voltmeter, measure the power supply Voltage between each injector connector terminal 1 and ground.

Voltage:
Approximately 4 - 9 Volts

3. Turn the ignition OFF, disconnect the negative battery terminal and disconnect the ECU connector. Using an Ohmmeter, check for continuity (short) to ground, between the ECU harness connector terminals 51, 52, 60 and 61.

Continuity:
Should not exist.

4. Using an Ohmmeter, check for continuity between the ECU harness connector terminals 51, 52, 60 and 61 and the relative injector connectors harness terminal 2.

Continuity:
Should exist.

If any of the previous tests produce unsatisfactory results, the harness will need to be repaired or replaced. Once repairs have been completed, clear the trouble codes and road test the vehicle to confirm that the repair has corrected the problem and the code doesn't return.

If the same trouble code reoccurs, it is possible that there is an intermittent failure of the component or the ECU. Check for looseness at all harness junctions and test for an intermittent failure
