- Using scan tool, erase DTCs. Attempt to start engine; crank engine for at least 10 seconds if necessary.
- Using scan tool, read DTCs. Allow engine to idle for at least 20 seconds. If scan tool does not display INJECTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT, go to next step. If scan tool displays INJECTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT, go to appropriate test. See INJECTOR DTCS table.INJECTOR DTCS

INJECTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT DTC sets if Powertrain Control Module (PCM) does not detect injector "turn off edge" when expected. Possible causes are: open or shorted injector ground circuit, open injector power supply circuit, open injector, or failed driver in Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Go to next step.
- Inspect all related wiring and connectors, and repair as necessary. Perform TEST VER-2. If no problems are found with wiring and connectors, go to next step.
- Start engine. Wiggle wiring harness from injectors to Powertrain Control Module (PCM). If engine misfires or stalls, repair wiring harness as necessary. Perform TEST VER-2. If engine does not misfire or stall, see INACTIVE DTC CONDITION . Perform TEST VER-2.
