Anyhow.....

Pull the connector and jump the terminals inside with a paper clip. This tricks the ECU into thinking the engine is fully warmed up and commands the injectors accordingly. If the engine now starts then you're on the right track.

Naturally you'll check the condition of the terminals while you're there.
