Circuit Description

The fuel injection system on L81 engines utilize sequential fuel injection. The engine control module (ECM) independently controls each fuel injector through separate internal drivers. The ECM drivers hold each fuel injector circuit to ground for a certain length of time based on engine operating parameters. When the injector driver is commanded OFF, circuit not grounded, the voltage level at the ECM should be high, ignition voltage. When the injector driver is commanded ON, circuit grounded, the voltage level at the ECM should be low. The ECM injector driver feedback circuit uses a pull-up voltage, 2.6-4.6 volts, which allows the ECM to individually differentiate between an open, short to ground, or short to voltage. DTC P0267 will set if the ECM detects higher than normal feedback voltage when fuel injector #3 is commanded ON with the engine cranking/running.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0267 will set if the fuel injector #3 feedback voltage is greater than 4.6 volts when fuel injector #3 is commanded ON when:

    • The condition exists for longer than 0.5 seconds.
    • The battery voltage is between 7.5-15 volts.
    • The engine speed is greater than 40 RPM.

DTC P0267 diagnostic runs continuously with the engine running.

DTC P0267 is a type B DTC.

Diagnostic Aids

To locate an intermittent problem, start the engine and use the scan tool to monitor MISFIRE CURRENT CYL. 3. If a #3 fuel injector fault exists, a misfire will occur on cylinder #3 and the misfire counter will count up.

Fuel injector resistance is 15.6-16.4 ohms at 21°C (70°F).

OR

All fuel injector resistances are within 1 ohm of each other at the same temperature.
