My mates tb42 EFI nissan patrol is running rough. After a bit of fault finding we have seen that one of the injectors is not getting a signal from the ECU. We swapped ECU's with mine and its still the same. Put a new CAS and still the same.

I know its not a turbo skyline but i'm pretty sure they have a very similar ecu to an R31 or R32.

Any help with this would be great.

check for voltage pulse at the injector plug, then at the ecu's output.

if the ecu is putting out signal and its not getting to the injector itself, clearly there is a breakdown in the wiring somewhere between A and B.

as i already said, did you check for pulse at the back of the ecu aswell?

if theres no pulse coming out the back of the plug on the ecu then either your ecu is shot or your plug is not seating properly, you work it out.

There should be battery voltage (12-14v) at one of the injector pins, the other is earthed by the ecu which completes the circuit and operates the injector. If you don't have 12-14volts at one of the injector pins could be wiring problem/bad connection/blown fuse/ corroded connector.... etc. If you get 12 volts at one pin then there is a problem with the wiring to the computer (the wire could be open circuited) if you have a wiring diagram you ca ncut the wire about an inch from either plug and solder in a new wire to fix it. hope this helps

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
