The numbers below refer to step numbers in diagnostic procedure.
- 3
This step tests each fuel injector resistance within a specific temperature range. If any fuel injectors display a resistance outside of specified value, replace fuel injector. - 4
This step determines if all fuel injectors are within 3 ohms of each other. If highest resistance value is within 3 ohms of lowest resistance value, then all fuel injector coil windings are okay. - 5
This step determines which fuel injector is faulty. After subtracting highest and lowest resistance values from average value, replace fuel injector that has greatest resistance difference from average.
