Default cossie experts plz advise

i have a nasty problem my injector 3 is constantly running when the ignition is on... very strange i have 12v at the connector for the injector, but if i test pin 33 and earth at the ecu i dont get 12v showing the fault. do the injector wires route straight to the ecu?

cheers

the injectors do run a constant live, its controlled by earth pal iirc


so the problem could be a broken wire going to ground, disconnect the ecu and run a continuity check on the feeds, and see if and where it goes to ground

otherwise you may have an ecu injector driver issue

check the wiring where it goes through the bulkhead mate, my grommet had been pulled out on a previous sapph and rubbed through casing permanent earth and masses and masses of fuel being dumped in cylinder 3.
