Default RE: Injectors arent closing? Help me

Item 2 of post 36.

For testing the red/black wires the meter should be on DC Volts. It should read battery voltage.

did al this start to happen after you worked on the car and DROPPED the injector ??

if so, you might have a damaged injector that is totally sticking open and letting fuel bypass

this all happened suddenly. i dropped it and noting happened to the car i drove it and everything. so if the injector sticks is it causing the fuel pump to run constantly? i dont think the injectors are the problem its the fuel pump that wont stop. what else can i do i hate seeing my car sit here should i have it towed to a mechanic?

to pa... its a dt830 digital multimeter. the injector wires are brown. dark blue. red. and brown again. i did find a stripped wire on my egr value its blue and yellow could that have caused the short?

You may read the FAQ for more basic troubleshooting, otherwise just follow this troubleshooting flow chart before performing the main relay bench test. The main relay typically fails in three ways. [ol][*] One is when there is only 1 click after turning the key and the fuel pump won't run.[*] The other is when the check engine light is steady on (no clicks) and the fuel pump won't run.[*] The third, most uncommon, is when the check engine light goes on and off normally (click on and click off normally) and the fuel pump won't run. This symptom needs to be tested in order to rule out the possibility of a dead fuel pump or a bad power supply that is too low to run the fuel pump.[/ol] Basically, if the fuel pump is running the main relay is fine. [ul][*] If there are no click but the harness connector power supply is good, (how to test below) then the main relay is most often bad.[*] The troubleshooting flowchart (which uses your senses) below is an accurate diagnose if your symptoms follow the flow of the chart.[/ul]
I only get one click!!!!!!!!!!?????

Need_to_figure_out_why_the_red/black_wires_are_24v. Thats_not_right_hope_its_bad_measurement.

I would think that it is almost impossible to have 25 volts on anything electrical in the circuit. The maximum voltage can only be from the battery.

I want you to measure the battery voltage across the battery posts. I put a picture of the proper setting from your volt meter. Post the battery voltage.

The diode test I belive is the one that I have circled for continuity. Atleast it does on my multimeter.

The resistance test will definitely work. A closed circuit will read zero or pretty close to zero. An open circuit should read one.

Post your results.

i went to the dealer today they said from what i described it may be the fuel pump, the same blue and yellow wire that was stripped is the same wire that runs to the fuel pump. what do u guys think replace?
