Fuel Injector Correction Reset: Description

The engine control module (ECM) has the ability to learn injector timing performance. With the engine at operating temperature and in closed throttle decel mode, the ECM will pulse each injector individually and measure the changes in rotational speed of the crankshaft using the input from the crankshaft position sensor (CPS). The ECM will run this diagnostic under three different fuel rail pressures for each injector. The ECM will adjust the timing of fuel delivered by each injector to obtain the desired RPM increase. The ECM stores the injector timing value required to increase the crankshaft speed by the desired RPM. If the ECM cannot control an increase in RPM for a given injector the appropriate code will set for that injector. The Fuel Injector Correction Reset must be performed anytime a fuel injector is replaced or an ECM is replaced and the values cannot be transferred from the old ECM.
