Ring out the circuit from the PCM to injector probably an open circuit.

i'm sorry , what do you mean ring out the circuit? unfamiliar with that term.

We in the trades call ringing out a circuit using a battery powered door buzzer to check out any automotive circuits. A ringer is easier to use since you dont have to look at DVM.

Injectors are not powered by PCM. Check "Inj B" 15a in the underhood electrical center. Power for injectors 2 and 4 are wired together, 6 and 8 together but all four are on the same fuse. PCM does the ground side of all injectors individually.

That means your circuit is shorted to ground. You need to trace the wires back and see where it is (more than likely) touching the engine block.

Here are a few places I have found causing this.

On the passenger side of the engine there is a harness that runs down in the front. Check that harness and see if it is shorting out. Also, Check at the back of the alternator. Some times you will find a short there as well. Another place is where the harness runs down between the power steering pipes coming out of the power steering pump. That's on the drivers side of the engine.

I just want to say I’m glad that I found this forum because after constant testing it ended up a blown fuse but just so happen to be a fuse labeled only with a “ * “ now she is up an running but changed out the injectors and she is even better thanks for all the help
