CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The ECM will enable an injector on the intake stroke of each cylinder. The individual cylinder fuel control is referred to as the Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection (SFI).

The ignition voltage is supplied directly to the fuel injectors. The ECM controls each injector by grounding the control circuit via an internal switch called a driver. The primary function of the driver is to supply the ground for the component being controlled. Each driver has a fault line which 15 monitored by the ECM. When the ECM is commanding a component on, the voltage of the control circuit should be low (near 0 volts). When the ECM is commanding the control circuit to a component off, the voltage potential of the circuit should be high (near battery voltage). If the fault detection circuit senses a voltage other than what is expected, this DTC will set.

The ECM will monitor the injector circuit for the following:

^ Short to ground

^ Short to voltage

^ Open circuit

^ An internally shorted or excessively low resistance injector

When the ECM detects any of the above malfunctions, this DTC will set and the affected driver will be disabled. The ECM will continue to test the circuit and if the fault goes away, the driver will be reactivated.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC

^ The ignition voltage is between 9.0 and 17.0 volts.

^ The engine speed is greater than 80 RPM.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC

An injector circuit fault is detected.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS

The ECM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and records the operating conditions in the Freeze Frame on the second consecutive drive trip that the diagnostic runs and fails.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC

^ The ECM turns off the MIL after three consecutive drive trips that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.

^ A History DTC clears after forty consecutive warm-up cycles if no failures report by this diagnostic or any other emission related diagnostic.

^ The ECM battery voltage is interrupted.

^ The scan tool clears the MIL/DTC.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS

Use the Connector Test Adapter Kit J 35616-A for any test that requires probing the ECM harness connector or a component harness connector. Using this kit will prevent damage to the harness connector terminals.

Check for the following conditions:

^ Poor connections at the ECM or at the component. Inspect the harness connectors for any backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor terminal to wire connection. Refer to Overall Vehicle Information / Diagrams / Diagnostic Aids for Checking Terminal Contact procedure.

^ Misrouted harness. Inspect the harness in order to ensure that the harness is not routed too close to any high voltage wires such as spark plug leads, or too close to any high current devices such as the alternator, the motors, the solenoids etc.

^ Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the scan tool while moving the related connectors and the wiring harnesses. A change in the display may help in order to locate the fault.

TEST DESCRIPTION

The number(s) below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:

2. Determines if a malfunction is present.

3. The main injector connector is located at the back of the intake plenum toward Bank 2.

7. If the Switched B+ circuit is restored, and the power feeds through the circuit and back to the test light, circuit continuity is verified. Replace the inoperative fuel injector.
