P0200

Got this code the other day. I'm no mechanic, but gave it a shot. Cylinder 1 injector plug is getting no power. I see no breaks in the immediate area of the wiring--didn't trace the whole harness tho--would it be safe to use a jump wire from the injector plug next to it? Just to get it running right til my buddy can look at it. Would it be dangerous to the motor or wiring? I fon't have a multi meter just a plain test light.

Fixed.

What was the fix?

There was a break in the #1 cylinder injector wire.

Did a jumper wire. Good to go.

Was hard to see because it was right at the bend where it curves into the plug itself. Runs like a champ now.

You didn’t get a p0301 code? Did you find the problem with cylinder1 just using test light? P0200 seems so generic.

Sure didn't. To narrow it down, I started unplugging injectors as it was running. Everyone made it stumble except when I unplugged #1. Started to look at the wiring, tried tracing the wiring back. I couldn't find anything wrong--until I took that long white plastic pin off

and REALLY looking at the wiring there. I straightened out the factory bent wire and that's when I saw the break.

I confirmed it with a reg test light. Jumped it, got continuity--g2g.

Came back!

Fixed it--again. This time the wire broke completely through, even the jumper wasn't making contact. Had to buy an injector pigtail to replace.
