I would take a look at the plugs and see if they are fouled. You might have a bad fuel pressure regulator. Also, the control module or pick up coil could be bad.

2003 dodge caravan storing code p206

Hi there:
P0206 means that the PCM detected a fault in the injector or the wiring to the injector. It monitors the injector and when the injector is activated, the PCM expects to see the voltage pulled "low" or close to zero. When the injector is switched off, the PCM expects to see a voltage that is close to battery voltage or "high". If it doesn't see the expected voltage the PCM will set this code. The PCM also monitors resitance in the circuit. If the resistance is excessively low or high it will set this code.

The symptoms for this code will likely be a misfire and a rough running engine. Poor acceleration. The MIL will also be illuminated.

The causes of a P0206 engine light code could be any of the following:
- Bad injector. This is usually the cause of this code but doesn't rule out the possibility of one of the other causes
- Open in the wiring to the injector
- Short in the wiring to the injector
- Bad PCM

First, using a DVOM check the resistance of the injector. If it isn't within specs, then replace the injector.

Check for voltage at the fuel injector connector. It should have 10 volts or more.
Visually check the connector for damage or broken wires.
Visually check the injector for damage.

If you have access to an injector tester, activate the injector and see if it operates. If the injector operates, then you likely have either an open in the wiring, or a blocked injector. If you do not have access to a tester, swap the injector with another one and see if the code changes. If the code changes, then change the injector.

At the PCM, remove the driver wire from the PCM connector and Ground the wire. (Make sure you have the correct wire. If you're not sure, do not attempt) The injector should activate
Replace the injector

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

P0206 p0113 p0123

P0113 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit High Input
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the temperature of the air entering the engine. The PCM supplies a 5 volt reference voltage to the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor. The IAT is a thermistor that varies resistance based on temperature. As the temperature increases, resistance decreases. Low temperature results in a high signal voltage. When the PCM sees a signal voltage higher than 5 volts, it sets this P0113 check engine light code.

There will likely be no symptoms other than illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL - Check Engine Light / Service Engine Soon).

A code P0113 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Internally failed IAT sensor
Faulty connection at IAT sensor
Open in IAT ground circuit or signal circuit
Short to voltage in IAT signal circuit or reference circuit
IAT harness and/or wiring routed too close to high-voltage wiring (e.g. alternator, spark plug cables, etc.)
Faulty PCM (less likely but not impossible)


P0123 Code - Throttle Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit High Input
A P0123 code means that the the car's computer has detected that the TPS (throttle position sensor) is reporting too high a voltage. Some symptoms may include:
Rough idle
High idle
Surging
other symptoms may also be present

A code P0123 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
TPS not mounted securely
TPS circuit short to ground or another wire
Faulty TPS
Damaged computer (PCM)


P0206 - Cylinder 6 Injector Circuit Malfunction
This means that the PCM detected a fault in the injector or the wiring to the injector. It monitors the injector and when the injector is activated, the PCM expects to see the voltage pulled "low" or close to zero. When the injector is switched off, the PCM expects to see a voltage that is close to battery voltage or "high". If it doesn't see the expected voltage the PCM will set this code. The PCM also monitors resitance in the circuit. If the resistance is excessively low or high it will set this code.

This 1999 dodge 1500 5.9l will start and run fine till about 1500 RPM and then misfires and pings severely. [ CHRYSLER ] Record1 -> 1998~2003 -> PCM -> ECU Information Module of year: ...

Hello.. looks like you are getting good fuel delivery. Is the fuel curve mixture on the scanner in specs? How is the timing, the timing chains on these engines will stretch and throw the timing off causing a ping and missfire -- a weak valve spring is something to consider. Also, the PCM may be faulty. I hope this helps.

Have a 1998 dodge caravan with service engine soon light still on after fixing code 205 and 206. Tried to reset it but the light will not go off. I need to pass emissions soon. What do I need to do.

The symptoms for this code (both) will likely be a misfire and a rough running engine. Poor acceleration. The MIL will also be illuminated. The causes of a P0206 engine light code could be any of the following:
* Bad injector. This is usually the cause of this code but doesn't rule out the possibility of one of the other causes
* Open in the wiring to the injector
* Short in the wiring to the injector
* Bad PCM

Your possible solutions, first, using a DVOM check the resistance of the injector. If it isn't within specs, then replace the injector.
* Check for voltage at the fuel injector connector. It should have 10 volts or more.
* Visually check the connector for damage or broken wires.
* Visually check the injector for damage.

Also, if you have access to an injector tester, activate the injector and see if it operates. If the injector operates, then you likely have either an open in the wiring, or a blocked injector. If you do not have access to a tester, swap the injector with another one and see if the code changes. If the code changes, then change the injector.

At the PCM, remove the driver wire from the PCM connector and Ground the wire. (Make sure you have the correct wire. If you're not sure, do not attempt) The injector should activate
* Replace the injector
