Whole right bank has no spark

My chevy is running on four cylinders, at first it was blowing *1 injector/coil fuses everytime we put them in. After changing fuses and unplugging injector 2 it stopped blowing them but now i have no spark what so ever on my right bank. The fuse has power and no wires are visably damaged, we even pulled the fuse box and checked the wires underneath

Have you done a compression check? I had the same problem on an S-10 Chevy pick up. Found that # 3 cylinder had low compression due to a burnt exhaust valve. No more problems after having valve job done on the engine.

SOURCE: Fuse for trailer right turn signal and brake blows intermittently

abad ground on that tail light unit could affect current load when turn and stop are used simultaneously. Although one side only is affected make sure of good grnd between trailer and tow vehicle. focust on the tail light unit in question. Replace the bulb. though rare, bulbs have been known to be the problem. If the bulb is breaking filiments ck the filiment orientation. filiments last longer in vertical orientation, where horizontal permits vibration to break the heated filiment when brake is applied.. good luck and let me know if This helped or not.

SOURCE: 1994 chevy suburban, no fuel coming from fuel

Put an injector noid light at the injector plug terminals to see if your getting a signal from the PCM(computer).If not try to find a computer from the same vehicle that works and swap it into yours to check.A PCM swap will take about 15minutes.

Blew a fuse on the 2,4,6,8 injectors

Cadillac v8, no engine told but is a v8
and ive never seen any car with 8 injector fuses but we know it has 2. 1 per bank.
the fuse if good. (was)
blows only if 1 coil shorts, a 10 ohm injector uses 10 times less current than a fuse.
and are not ever gang fired, 1 at time sequentially. but ganged is 4amps, so moot.


and shorted coils in the injector do that.
or omg blown up PCM that turned them all on at one time
learn that injectors are PCM modulated to keep them cool
so on time super short. (called duty cycle)
i'd do not agree on sticking theory at all. sure fuel rates wrong./
ok bank 2 fuse blew.
it can only be this bank 2. current overload.

1: fuse was a china clone junk and fail try buying Little fuse/BUSS branded fuses. not junk fuses, or last owner did sure, they did., endless.
2: bad wiring sure, if they short sure the fuse blows or pcm blows up as a result. (PnP injectors,)_
3: bad PCM , injector driver transistors short and BOOM fuse blows.(repeats easy)
4: injector coil shorts if car (secret) 10 ohm coils and is way less , it is a bad injector, 20%error max. IMO
use any DMM meter in lowest range ohms and test each injector coil
all will read the same as a set, (at 1 temperature all)
did I miss any, I think not.

I have a 2002GMC Sonoma 4wd with a 4.3l edi and cmfi. I have a random missfire code of p0300 and i have changed spark plus wires cap and rotor and right bank upstream o2 sensor still skips

Fuel injector's not firing ? edi and cmfi ????? What do you thing this means . Center port fuel injection ! The powertrain control module (PCM) enables the appropriate fuel injector on the intake stroke for each cylinder. A voltage is supplied directly to the fuel injectors. The PCM controls each fuel injector by grounding the control circuit via a solid state device called a driver. A fuel injector coil winding resistance that is too high or too low will affect engine driveability. A fuel injector control circuit diagnostic trouble code (DTC) may not set, but a misfire may be apparent. The fuel injector coil windings are affected by temperature. The resistance of the fuel injector coil windings will increase as the temperature of the fuel injector increases.Is there spark to the plug wires for those cylinders ?

Cylinders 2, 4, 6

It just can't do that. No way to shut down one side of an engine.
Misfires are caused by lack of fuel, spark, or compression. One of the three is missing. One whole side-that rules out spark. Coil pack design just won't affect one side of the engine. That leaves fuel or compression. Some multi-port injection systems are so-called "bank fired" -that is, one side or bank of the engine will pulse the injectors at the same time, first one bank, then the other. But in the early '90's, some cars came out with sequential fuel injection, which pulses the injectors individually, following the firing order of the cylinders, more precise fuel metering that way. I would have thought that an Avalon would be sequential injection, but you could check. Anyway, you need to check if the injectors are working on 2, 4, & 6. The power wire to all injector systems is a single wire that is spliced to each injector. Conceivably, the splice to that bank or side may have broken. With key on, every injector should have voltage at the injector connector. Only two wires to each injector- a power wire and a ground wire. If no power on 2, 4, or 6-that is probably it. (On bank fired injection, all three ground wires on each side splice together before the ground wire goes into the computer. With sequential, each injector ground wire goes to the computer separately.)
Beyond fuel, it is possible that the fuel/air mixture is being affected on only one side. If you have a noisy exhaust leak on that side, it could lean out the mixture.
Finally, low compression will cause a misfire. Possibly, a camshaft on that side is not in time. Only way to check is to do an engine compression test.

this right banks and left bank, please remove Ignition coils with lids and spark plugs from right bank and swap with left bank, if fault code change as
P 0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
P 0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
P 0306 Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected
You can Identify it's a faulty ignition system then next swap ignition lids from ignition coils be careful each coils have two lids one short and other long bit deference and when you remove and fix it to the car keep in mind correct order because each coil two different fire for two spark plugs don't mix up, if you mix it can create the fault code.if you detect any fault ignition coils or spark plugs or lids replace that and also whether god or bad recommend to replace spark plugs, find the right that's most important thing, if this way couldn't found the any ignition fault next step is check fuel presser, when the engine running fuel presser must be around 4.5 bar without engine running must be 4 to 6 bar if the fuel presser too low need to check two different things one is fuel pump other is fuel injectors, in this case you can swap injectors from right bank to left bank and find is the injectors leaking, if not leaking faulty fuel pump.is this information helped you? if yes please leave a comment,

I have a mystery truck! Bank one misfires under a load. Removed cats, new plugs and wires, fuel pressure at rail is great. Whats the f@%#$n problem? I got no trouble codes! its a mystery! 2005 chevy...

you could have a bad injector at that cylinder or a bad coil that runs that cylinder. If I remember there is 1 coil for each cylinder. How do you know which bank is miss firing without a code set?
