P0201-FUEL INJECTOR 1 CIRCUIT/OPEN





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W


  • When Monitored:

    With battery voltage greater than 10 volts, ASD relay energized, and engine speed less than 3000 rpm.

  • Set Condition:

    The PCM detects an open condition on the Fuel Injector 1 circuit.


Possible Causes
 
INTERMITTENT DTC
 
(K343) FUSED MAIN RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
 
(K11) INJECTOR 1 CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
 
FUEL INJECTOR 1
 
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
 


Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)



Diagnostic Test

1.DTC IS ACTIVE

NOTE: Diagnose and repair any system voltage or sensor reference voltage DTCs before continuing with this test.



WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.




Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes
  • Go to 2


No

2.(K343) FUSED MAIN RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE







NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.



Is the test light illuminated and bright?

Yes
  • Go to 3


No

3.(K11) INJECTOR 1 CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE







Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes
  • Go to 4


No

4.FUEL INJECTOR 1



NOTE: The resistance of the circuit will vary according to the temperature of the injector coil. Use the table below to determine the resistance range of the injector.



Fuel Injector Coil Resistance Based on Engine Temperature
 
Temperature
 
Resistance
 
–20° C (–4° F)
 
10 ohms (+/– .6 ohms)
 
20° C (68° F)
 
12 ohms (+/– .6 ohms)
 
60° C (140° F)
 
14 ohms (+/– .6 ohms)
 
100° C (212° F)
 
16 ohms (+/– .6 ohms)
 



Is the resistance of the injector within the specified range?

Yes
  • Go to 5


No

5.POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)








Were any problems found?

Yes


No
