1998 DODGE INTREPID 2.7 MISSES

P0202
Trouble Code: P0202 (4.7L V8 VIN N Auto)
INJECTOR #2 CONTROL CIRCUIT the coil inside the injector 2 is bad. the PC fails so see the inductive EMF kick back from the coil. (oem injectors only)
the wires to injector 2 are bad
the PCM is bad.
the SM states (*and is correct)

• INTERMITTENT CONDITION
• ASD RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT
• FUEL INJECTOR bad.. or wrong one used, non OEM fail easy.
• FUEL INJECTOR DRIVER CIRCUIT OPEN
• FUEL INJECTOR DRIVER CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
• PCM

the PCM is tuned to use only OEM injectors,.
THE PCM is very smart in this regard, it works kinda like RADAr
THE PCM SENDS A PULSE TO THE INJECTOR AND IT SIGNAL BOUNCES BACK, IF this signal is weak the injector is dead or wrong one there. use OEM injectors if SAVVY to this magic,

or swap say injector 1 and 2,
if injector 1 fails now not 2 then the injector in 1 is bad, or wrong kind.
easy no ? swaps

The alternator isn't a possible cause as it is basically there to charge the battery when the engine is running. The resistance reading you have is low so shouldn't be an issue.
The codes mean :-

P0201 = Injector 1 - circuit malfunction.
P0202 = Injector 2 - circuit malfunction.
P2146 = Fuel Injector Group "A" Supply Voltage Circuit/Open.

This could be an issue with the actual injectors. Injectors are commonly numbered to match the cylinder they feed fuel to so you have a possible problem with the injectors on cylinders 1 and 2. If they need replacing I would seriously recommend getting a good diesel mechanic to do it. Some engines use a pressurised fuel injection system running at a PSI powerful enough to blast fingers off.

replace your fuel injector

Trouble Code: P0205

Injector 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 Control
Possible Causes:


ASD relay output circuit failure. Fuel injector has malfunctioned or failed. Fuel injector control circuit is open or shorted to ground. PCM has failed.Here is the code from the Dodge repair guide..

That code is indicating an intermittant crank shaft or cam shaft sensor fault. Because the engine is starting then stalling, check to see if you have spark after the stall. If spark is still present, you are probobley looking at a cam sensor circuit issue. The cam sensor controls the fuel injector pulse. If the cam sensor fails on a chrysler product, the fuel injectors will not function.

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.

The ground wire from the injector to the pcm is open. The injectors share the same power wire but the pcm grounds each one individually to fire.

Check it for a broken wire....follow it around because it is taped. These get cooked and become brittle.
