Fuel Injector Heater

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2017 Lincoln Navigator, 2017 Lincoln MKZ, 2017 Lincoln MKX, 2017 Lincoln MKT, and 2017 Lincoln MKC. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The fuel injector heater provides a heat source at the fuel rail during combustion to improve cold engine starting and operation. The fuel injector heater is made of a resistive material that heats up when electricity flows through it. The fuel injector heater is controlled by the fuel injector heater control module. The PCM may activate the fuel injector heater control module and the fuel injector heaters any time the engine is running during cold ambient temperatures. For additional information, refer to COLD START SYSTEM .
