What Voltage are Injecors Running?
 

Hi all, I'm wondering how many volts are running thru a injector while the vehicle is at idle, I'd find it out my self but its been raining for the past day and a half and its been ticking in my head for a while. Thanks.

12v is what they get to them.

See page FI-88 in the TSRM

Actually, all that gets to the injectors is between 1 and 3 (I think) volts. That's according to the Haynes Book... What I did to "test" the electrical portion of the injectors was to take a injector plug with a couple inches of it's wire off of a donor harness from the junkyard. Take your plug and strip 1/2" of insulation off the end of the two wires, and plug the plug onto an injector. Grab a good AA battery, and touch the two wires to the ends of the battery, and if it works right you will hear a faint *click* sound. If not, then the electricals of the injector don't work right. Also, if you want to make sure your getting power from the harness into the injectors, buy a red 1.5V LED with a couple inches of wire from each lead, and stick that into an injector plug on your car's wiring harness. Have a friend crank your car over, and you should see the LED flashing rapidly. It'll be faint, as the power comes and goes very rapidly, so perform that last test at night so you could see better.

And I just realized you didn't ask anything about testing injectors or the wiring harness, so if you need to or if anyone else needs to, there you go.

Ok, I see, thanks. That will be helpfull, as for the TSRM I knew that information was there, its just it didnt give a deffinate awnser on voltage. The rain just stopped here so I can go out and check it, thanks again.

Ops, me bad. I knew that on pg FI-79 the Cold Start Injector uses 12v to operate.

I thought 12v was too high, but missed the SST used for the main injectors, pg FI-88, which has a resistor in it to cut down the voltage.
