The fuel injectors receive their power from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Power Relay which is located in the Engine Compartment Fuse Box. This circuit is protected by Fuse "I" (20 Amp), also located in the Engine Compartment Fuse Box. If you blew a fuse, this would be the one.
The fuel pump, however, is a totally different circuit. (although it is controlled by the PCM which will not work if the fuse above is blown) The fuel pump gets its power from the fuel pump relay which is protected by Fuse "O" (20 Amp) in the Engine Compartment Relay Box.

08 nissan titan i have no power to fuses that. Go to injectors or coils or fuel pump

Disconnect the fuel pump, replace the blown fuse in the underhood fuse and relay center and see if the components power up. A shorted fuel pump will cause this along with a shorted engine wiring harness.

Fuel injector fuse blows randomly/only when it is started. its a 94 bonneville and i wonder what could be the solution ?

CHECK FOR THE CONTINUITY OF THE WIRES FROM TERMINAL TO TERMINAL AND FROM TERMINAL TO THE GROUND.

I have a 1994 bonneville 3.8-i replaced my fuel pump recently, i keep having my fuel injector fuse blow, i took the injectors off and tested and cleaned them,the car seems to run real good

If its started to blown fuses after the fuel pump maybe there a wire that got sqeeze between the tank and the body of the car that create a short

Why does my ECM-I fuse keeps blowing?

Did you check the crank sensor wire, it may be hitting the hot exhaust. does the wire going to fuel pump have a problem and is shorting out. ECM 1 ..... then there are 5 components that this fuse feeds
1-crank sensor
2- all injectors
3- ECM
4- electronic ignition control module
5- ignition coil - check for a bad wire in these areas. Hope this helps.

I replaced my fuel pump when my 1999 yukon wouldn't start one day. Now still won't start and I replaced the fuel filter. There is pressure but no gas getting to the engine. Don't know w

Guessing when you say pressure that you have fuel pressure and that the fuel pump is working but the injectors aren't pulsing and injecting fuel into the cylinders. The way your fuel system works is that you should have constant power at each injector and the vehicles computer (the ECM) gets readings from different sensors and send a quick ground pulse in order to complete the circuit. each time the ECM sends a ground pulse, that's when the injector injects fuel so the ground signal/pulse is quick (on and off, one and off..you get the idea). The first thing I would do if your fuel pump is pumping and you have fuel pressure is check the fuse. The fuse you want to check should be a 20 amp fuse in the fuse panel under the hood of the vehicle in the engine compartment. Below is a diagram of the fuse layout and I have marked the fuse you need to check (the ECM 1 fuse). If that fuse is blown you will not have that constant power at the injectors. If blown replace and that should solve the problem unless it blows again which would mean you have a short. If it isn't blown make sure you have power at all time when the key is on. The pink wire at each injector should be the power wire. If no power you need to locate the open wire for that circuit (coming from that fuse to each injector). This is where I would start. If you need further instructions as far as any more testing procedures, reply/comment here or feel free to email me directly at [email protected]. Hope it's as simple as a fuse for your sake and I hope this helped.

Fuse blows for fuel injectors '99 Saturn SC2

Locate the "ground" side of the fuse connector (the side that goes to the injectors and DOES NOT go to the battery).
Connect an ohm meter between the ground side of the fuse connector and the battery NEGATIVE post. The short will show a resistance of less than 5 ohms.

With the meter connected as above, start unplugging all of the connectors that are involved in that circuit one at a time to isolate the short. (you will know you found it when the resistance reading goes way up).

Fortunately, this is an easy one. That fuse feeds the injectors, and NOTHING else. (see partial Power Distribution diagram below) You most likely have a shorted injector. If unplugging the injectors one at a time does not find the problem child, then you need to check the wiring harness between the injectors and the fuse block to see if it is rubbed through or pinched.

Fuel injector fuse is blown, keeps blowing. Engine turns but won't catch and start.

if the injector fuse is blown then the car won`t start as its not getting fuel into the motor to fire.if the fuse keeps blowing then you could have an injector/s that is drawing too much or the injector driver in the ecm may not be any good and needs replacing or a used ecm.it could be a short some where in the wiring for the injector system that is going to ground.

95 ford mustang fuel delivery problem no power to pump

Check to see if fuel has stopped getting to the motor, also make sure the fuse hasn't blown again. Its possible to have gotten a bad pump. Also the injectors and a few other things are usually on the same circuit so if the fuse blows can be other items causing the issue like shorted wire to ground. I had and issue a ways back same as yours and the pump wasn't sending juice to the motor, fuse kept blowing and I swapped pumps (nothing). Then I got a wiring diagram of the system the fuse was blowing on and come to find out one of the wires to the injectors was shorting to the intake manifold due to chaffing 2 wires had rubbed the insulation off and were touching grounding out. Problem fixed with some electrical take and zip ties and no more fuses blown since.

I have a 2001 Explorer Sport Trak and it don't want to start. We have checked all the sensors (crankshaft, cam trigger, fuel pump pressre is 65). What is the tank fuel pressure sensor voltage reading. ...

The first thing to check would be spark. This can be done by connecting a spark plug tester to a plug wire while the engine is cranking. The tester must be grounded to the engine block for a good electrical connection.. Your fuel pump pressure is OK.
The problem should be electrical so check
1. No voltage to the fuel injectors (blown injector fuse or bad relay)
2. No pulse signal to the injectors from the PCM (no crank or cam sensor input to the PCM, or a bad driver circuit in the PCM, or a wiring harness problem)
3. A shorted fuel injector (robs voltage from the other injectors so none will operate)
