In this video I’ll show how to do some simple but effective test on a Nissan fuel injector circuit. Note the injector sound test with a screwdriver - keeping it simple! Though I performed the voltage testing with a scope, a digital multimeter would have worked just as well in this case. No reason to disconnect the PCM and ohm check the harness, as the factory flow chart would have you do. The testing demonstrated applies to ALL ground side switched injectors and outputs. Before doing any testing on computer outputs, please refer to my video on identifying circuit design for more information:
