Injector 7 open circuit - Bad wiring?
Code P0208. It is the Only fault.
- I checked both with an ohm meter and with a 1.5V test light. Now after your input, went back and used a 12V test light! (Bulb lit bright as day.) This tells me that this section of the harness is good.
- Had the idea to swap connectors but I am lucky to be able to easily pull #8. #s 2,4,6 are under the intercooler and will be difficult to get to.
- For grins, pulled the spark plug, looks lean and dry, and there is a spark. (Just in case the ECM is smart enough to turn off the injector if the coils or spark plug fail.)
- Yes, noid light is good. Recently use this one, and now put 12V to it and it lights up.
I need to move down the harness to the ECM. Not looking forward to pulling all the stuff above where the ECM is tucked away.
I have additional injectors sitting around. I'll hook one up and see if it hums and the fault goes away.

Crap! Stuck an injector onto the #8 injector connector. Error code went away!
Looks like it is a bad injector.
Anything to try to get the injector to work without having to pull the car apart?
