The engine uses Electronic Unit Injectors that are mechanically actuated and electronically energized. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) sends a 105 volt pulse to each injector solenoid. The pulse is sent at the proper time and at the correct duration for a given engine load and speed. If a diagnostic is detected in the solenoid circuit, the ECM will disable that solenoid circuit. The ECM keeps the solenoid circuit disabled for 10 revolutions of the crankshaft. The ECM then tries to fire the injector. If the diagnostic is still present, the ECM will disable the circuit for another 10 revolutions of the crankshaft. This sequence of events will be repeated indefinitely until the problem is corrected.
The 105 volt pulse can be individually cut out to aid in troubleshooting misfire problems by using the Electronic Technician (ET). The solenoid is mounted on top of the fuel injector body.
