RODEO 6VD1 3.2L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
5. A special injector test connector is provided so that
the injectors can be electrically tested without
removal of the manifold. The test connector can be
identified by the blue connector lock which is
tethered to the wiring harness. If the light for
cylinder 5 is "ON" steady before cranking the engine
as well as while cranking the engine, then the
injector driver circuit is shorted to ground.
If the test light blinks while cranking, the PCM and
the wiring to the injectors are OK. Fuel Injector
Coil Test Procedure will check if the injectors are
faulty.
