Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

The engine coolant temperature (ECT) affects the ability of the fuel injector tester to detect a faulty fuel injector. If the ECT is between 10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F), go to Fuel Injector Coil Test Procedure.

The first second of the voltage displayed by the DMM may be inaccurate due to the initial current surge, therefore, record the lowest voltage displayed by the DMM after the first second of the test. The voltage displayed by the DMM may increase throughout the test as the fuel injector windings warm and the resistance of the fuel injector windings changes. An erratic voltage reading, such as large fluctuations in voltage that do not stabilize, indicates an intermittent connection within the fuel injector. From the voltages recorded, identify the highest voltage, excluding any voltages above 9.5 volts. Subtract each voltage that is not above 9.5 volts from the highest voltage. Record each subtracted value. Refer to the example. The subtracted value for any fuel injector must not exceed 0.7 volts. A fuel injector with a subtracted value that is more than 0.7 volts is considered faulty and must be replaced. A fuel injector with a recorded voltage above 9.5 volts is also considered faulty and must be replaced.

Example

Highest Voltage Reading		Acceptable Subtracted Value Above/Below 10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F)
7.1 volts		0.7 volts
Injector Number	Voltage	Subtracted Value	Pass/Fail
1	9.8		F
2	6.6	0.3	P
3	6.9	0.0	P
4	5.8	1.1	F

Fuel Injector Coil Test Procedure-ECT Outside 10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F)

Step

Action

Values

Yes

Did you perform the Powertrain On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check?

Go to Step 2

Go to Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check

Install the scan tool.
Check the engine coolant temperature (ECT).

Is the ECT outside the specified limits?

10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F)

Go to Step 3

Go to Fuel Injector Solenoid Coil Test - Engine Coolant Temperature Between 10-35 Degrees C (50-95 Degrees F)

Turn OFF the ignition .

Notice: In order to prevent flooding of a single cylinder and possible engine damage, relieve the fuel pressure before performing the fuel injector coil test procedure.

Relieve the fuel pressure. Refer to Fuel Pressure Relief .
Access the fuel injector electrical connectors as required.
Connect the J 39021 fuel injector tester to B+ and ground.
Set the amperage supply selector switch on the fuel injector tester to the Coil Test 2.5 amp position.
Connect the leads from the voltmeter the fuel injector tester.
Set the DMM to the tenths scale (0.0).

Important: Check the ECT again to ensure that the correct chart is being used.

Connect the fuel injector tester to a fuel injector.
Press the push to start test button on the fuel injector tester.

Important : The voltage reading may rise during the test.

Observe the voltage reading on the DMM.
Record the lowest voltage observed after the first second of the test.
Repeat steps 8 through 11 for each fuel injector.
Identify the highest voltage reading recorded other than those above 9.5 volts.
Subtract any other voltage reading recorded from the highest voltage reading recorded.
Repeat step 14 for all the remaining fuel injectors.

Is any value that resulted from subtraction more than the specified value?

4.7-5.8 V

Go to Step 4

Go to Fuel Injector Balance Test

Replace any fuel injector that had any of the following:

•	A subtracted value exceeding 0.6 volts

•	An initial reading above 9.5 volts

•	An erratic reading

Refer to Fuel Injector Replacement .
