Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) supplies voltage to each
fuel injector on the injector positive voltage control circuits.
The ECM energises each fuel injector by grounding the control
circuit of that fuel injector. The ECM monitors the status of the
injector positive voltage control circuits and the fuel injector
control circuits. The injectors are separated into the following
two groups:
• |
Group 1 - Injectors 1 and 4 |
• |
Group 2 - Injectors 2 and 3 |
When a fuel injector circuit condition is detected by the ECM,
the affected fuel injector will be disabled and may disable the
affected group of fuel injectors.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• |
The ECM monitors for a condition once per camshaft
revolution. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects that the commanded state of the driver and the
actual state of the control circuit do not match.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTCs P020A, P020B, P020C and P020D are Type C DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P020A, P020B, P020C and P020D are Type C DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification
- Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan
tool. DTCs P0261, P0262, P0264, P0265, P0267, P0268, P0270 or
P0271 should not set.
- Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running
the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the
vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the Freeze
Frame/Failure Records Data List.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the
affected fuel injector.
- Ignition ON, test for 2-3 V between the low
control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
⇒ |
If less than the specified range, test the low
control circuit for an open/high resistance or for a short to
ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine
Control Module. |
⇒ |
If greater than the specified range, test the low
control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests
normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the affected
fuel injector low control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- Engine cranking or running, the test lamp should
illuminate or flash.
⇒ |
If the test lamp does not illuminate or flash,
replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the
affected fuel injector.
Component Testing
Static Test
- Disconnect the harness connector at the affected fuel
injector.
Note: The DMM and test leads
must be calibrated to 0 Ω in order to prevent
misdiagnosis.
- Test for 0.2-1.5 Ω between the low control
terminal 2 and the high control terminal 1.
⇒ |
If not within the specified range, replace the
fuel injector. |
- Test for infinite resistance between each terminal and
ground.
⇒ |
If not the specified value, replace the fuel
injector. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic
procedure.
