Injectors not pulsing..need help
Ok, I need some help as I can’t figure out what’s going on.
My engine is a 2004 5.3 with LS1 injectors, Intake, coils and DBC throttle body.
The PCM is a 2004 express Van tune with the blue / green connectors.
I have fuel and spark but no injector pulse. I’m unsure where to look at this point. I have power at the injector on the 12v side but the noid light isn’t lighting up when I crank the motor.
Keep in mind this engine was running fine before I decided to move the PCM inside the car to clean up the engine bay. It has vats delete already in the programming and nothing has been changed there.
I re-wired and rebuilt my harness by shortening wires and added new wiring for most of the wiring. I meticulously labeled everything and doubled checked twice before inserting wire into pcm connector.
I also over-grounded the harness by putting ground terminals for inside the car and back of the engine head. Everything soldered and goes to each point. I also added grounds from the motor to firewall and motor to frame. Battery ground is on the engine block.
Here’s what I have done so far:
• Verified spark with a spark plug ignition tool (It lights up when cranking
• Verified fuel pressure with a gauge on the fuel rail @ 58lbs. Fuel squirted out of the rail and you can hear the pump priming when turning the key switch on.
• Verified 12 volts on the pcm and sensor circuits when cranking
• Verified motor will actually run by squirting starter fluid inside the throttle body
• Checked all grounds, including back of the head and inside the car.
• Pulled codes with a reader, at first I got a P0107 with meant issues with map sensor. I pulled the plug and checked 5v reference and low reference on the terminals..both were good so I put the plug back in. Cleared codes and checked again. Check engine light is still on but no codes now. I’m guessing the plug was partially out of the map sensor or something.
• I checked PCM grounds on terminals blue connector 1, 24, 27, 40, 64, 67 and green connector 1 and 40…..all were good.
• Battery has a full charge
• Checked fuses on my main fuse block for the harness, all good.
What can cause the injectors not to pulse? I was monkeying around with it for a split second last night and got it to work for one start cycle.
The noid light was working too. But for some reason it quit and I can’t duplicate it.
I need to check the wiring at the crank and camshaft sensor next but I am running out of ideas and the fact that I am not getting codes for either is making me less than optimistic about it.
I just don’t know why the check engine light is on.
It’s got to be something simple, I would appreciate any suggestions I can get.
I've got this listed on a few sites as I am off right now and would like to keep moving forward on this and get it going.
Thanks in advance
