Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) enables the appropriate fuel injector pulse for each cylinder. Ignition voltage is supplied to the fuel injectors. The ECM controls each fuel injector by grounding the control circuit via a solid state device called a driver. The ECM monitors the status of each driver. If the ECM detects an incorrect voltage for the commanded state of the driver, a fuel injector control circuit DTC sets.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The engine is running. |
| • | The ignition voltage is more than 11 volts for 5 seconds. |
| • | DTC P0201-P0206 runs continuously when the above conditions are met. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The ECM detects an incorrect voltage on the fuel injector control circuit. |
| • | The above condition is met for 1 second. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0201-P0206 are Type B DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
DTC P0201-P0206 are Type B DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
Performing the Fuel Injector Diagnosis may help isolate an intermittent condition. Refer to Fuel Injector Diagnosis.

Circuit/System Verification
Key ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. DTC P0201, P0202, P0203, P0204, P0205, or P0206 should not be set.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X130 fuel injector multi-way connector.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal A ECM harness side and ground
- Ignition OFF, connect a J 35616-200 Kit between the ignition circuit terminal A and the control circuit ECM harness side, of the appropriate injector listed below:
- Engine cranking, the test lamp should flash for each injector.
- Ignition OFF, measure for 10-15 ohms on the engine harness side of X130 between the ignition circuit terminal A and the control circuit of the appropriate injector listed below:
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition circuit fuse is open, test or replace the fuel injector. |
| • | Injector 1 terminal C |
| • | Injector 2 terminal D |
| • | Injector 3 terminal E |
| • | Injector 4 terminal F |
| • | Injector 5 terminal G |
| • | Injector 6 terminal H |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
| • | Injector 1 terminal C |
| • | Injector 2 terminal D |
| • | Injector 3 terminal E |
| • | Injector 4 terminal F |
| • | Injector 5 terminal G |
| • | Injector 6 terminal H |
| ⇒ | If the resistance is not within the specified range, test for a short to ground or an open/high resistance between X130 and the appropriate fuel injector harness connector. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the affected fuel injector. |
