What it means

The ECU sees an electrical fault in the injector circuits in general, often a shared supply or a driver problem rather than a single injector.

  • Rough running or no start
  • Check engine light

Common causes

  • Missing injector supply (fuse, relay)
  • Wiring fault affecting several injectors
  • ECU injector driver or power stage fault
  • On diesels: injector boost voltage circuit fault

What to check first

  1. Check the injector supply fuse and relay
  2. Scope several injectors to see which ones are not switched
  3. Check for other injector-specific codes (P0201–P0208)
