Fault Code 26

Synopsis

Description: Injector driver circuit 1 open or shorted
Power loss light: Off
Limp-in mode: None

Possible Causes

Bad connection or wiring - Check the wiring and connections to injectors 1 and 2 in the injector harness (above the fuel rail) and between the harness and the power module (or SMEC) and the injector contol lines between the logic module and power module. Clean and regrease any corroded connectors with dielectric grease and repair any shorts.

Injector driver transistor failure - Check the injector signals coming from the power module (or SMEC). They should rise to about 12V when the injector is off and drop close to 0V when the injector is on. If they are out of spec, you may need to replace the power module.

Diagnostic Method

Trigger Parameters

- Near 0V or near 12V not detected when the injector driver is turned on or off, respectively
