Summary

The correction code printed on each injector must be programmed into the engine DCU every time one or more injectors are replaced.

When to Program

This operation must be carried out if:

  • One or more injectors have been replaced.
  • The DCU has been replaced (a new DCU must always be reprogrammed with the codes for all the injectors).

Note: Every injector has its own individual correction code. The code has 30 characters printed on top of the injector. If the correction code programmed in the engine DCU is incorrect for the injector, the engine may stall and run very badly at idle. The engine may also break down and have a reduced service life.

STEP BY STEP

Test Preconditions

  • Battery voltage is greater than 12 V.
  • Immobilizer switch on run, engine stopped.
  • No-fault codes in memory.

Procedure

1. Select the function: "Injector programming 1, 2, 3 or 4"

2. A dialogue box will be displayed to confirm the code programmed for the injector.

3. Confirm with "OK" to reprogram the injector code.

  • If the code is correct, choose "OK".
  • To quit the program choose "Abort".

4. Enter the 30 characters of the code printed on the injector (see illustration), then click "OK" to validate.

5. A dialogue box will be displayed to confirm the code chosen; click "Yes" if it is correct.

  • Click "No" to stop the programming process.

6. If the programming process has been successful, the old and new codes will be displayed.

7. Confirm with "OK" to finish the process.

8. Check and delete any fault codes.

Caution

If the process has failed, check the fault codes and check that the correct code entered is correct. Even if the correct code is correct and no other fault code is present, the DCU may still not function correctly. Check the engine DCU and restart the operation from the beginning.

Electronic Injector Test Kit

With today’s Common Rail injector technology, it’s no longer sufficient to just measure resistance to check a coil’s health – you also need to measure inductance for an immediate and accurate assessment. Previously separate tools would have been needed for this. Not with our Electronic Injector Test kit. Otherwise known as the ‘buzz tool,’ or part number YDT720, you’ll be able to quickly test the electrical integrity of all makes of solenoid Common Rail injectors on vehicle. The simple,hand-held tool measures the injectors core criteria, allowing you to quickly compare values and identify if any are not within a comparable performance range, or confirm specific electronic failures which may indicate an unrepairable injector. You can also use it in conjunction with our solvent cleaning kit to resolve early-stage lacquering. All with just one tool, saving significant time and cost for the garage.

HD3000 High Pressure Diagnostic Tool

Designed for specialist workshops, our patented HD3000, part number YDT840, simplifies the diagnosis of faults with current and future-generation diesel and gasoline high pressure fuel systems, on all vehicle types. With one tool users will be able to safely set and electronically control any pressure testpoint , up to 3000 bar, in order to investigate the full range of pressures and analyse the performance of the fuel injection system – previously this level of flexibility, accuracy and pressure capability could only be achieved with a system-dedicated test bench. Containing an electronic control device, hydraulic block and electrical device, it incorporates multiple dedicated test routines, as well as an IMV cleaning procedure. All this can be achieved without changing any ECU parameter, dismantling the fuel injection system, or taking the vehicle out on a road test – helping workshops save valuable time and deliver faster service turnarounds.

LP35 Low Pressure Diagnostic Tool

Designed for the garage technician, LP35, part number YDT810, is a highly precise, ultra-fast, affordable hand-held tester for the low-pressure side of light, medium and heavy duty vehicles. With a single tool, you can perform quick and accurate pressure analysis across a wide range of positive and negative pressures, from minus one through to positive 35 bar -that’s why we called it the LP35. Unlike other entry level equivalents, it’s also compatible with most low-pressure circuits, as well as different fluids, so you’ll no longer need separate negative and positive pressure tools, saving both time and money. Add to this its static and dynamic functionality, and you’ve got a highly versatile, highly capable low-pressure tool.

Sealed Rail Diagnostic Kit

Because Common Rail systems operate at extremely high pressures, any loss in pressure will have a knock-on effect on the vehicle – causing a progressive reduction in power and even a complete engine shut down. It is therefore imperative that any such issues are identified and resolved as early as possible. We have just the answer. Our Sealed Rail diagnostic kit, part number YDT850, provides simple, low-cost on-vehicle capability for all makes of Common Rail pumps and injectors. Consisting of a sealed rail pressure tester and injector back leakage measurement equipment, users can check the pressure being generated by a Common Rail pump and identify individual injectors that fail, meaning only faulty components will need to be replaced.

Fuel Injection

Achieving future emissions targets will require even more meaningful innovation as vehicle manufacturers look to improve engine management, electrical power consumption, vehicle weight and integration of alternative powertrains, without compromising on vehicle performance. The good news - as a leading OE manufacturer, we already offer a range of proven, green technologies that deliver significant improvements in fuel economy, emissions and engine performance. Whether it’s a diesel, gasoline or electrified vehicle. Or a car, light commercial, heavy duty or off highway application. Better still, we keep these vehicles running the same way throughout their lifetime with a comprehensive range of aftermarket solutions including OE parts, tools and know-how.
