DTC 36 - Injection Pulse Width Error (Response Time Long): Notes

The fuel injector driver receives an inject command signal from the PCM and provides a current regulated output to the fuel solenoid that controls injection. It also returns an injection pulse width signal back to the PCM to inform it when the fuel solenoid has actually seated. This injection pulse width signal is measured in micro seconds. DTC 36 will set when:

Battery voltage is greater than 10 volts.
Engine coolant temperature is greater than 68°F (20°C).
Injection pulse width is greater than 2.5 milliseconds. PCM will default to a fixed injection pulse width value of 1.95.

NOTE: Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.

This step determines if DTC 36 is the result of a hard failure or an intermittent condition.
This step determines if the solenoid is at fault, or if the problem is with the PCM or wiring.
