Can you reconfirm the injectors that are not having voltage? your previous posts seems to have mistakes with identifying them?

All the injectors shares the same pwer source. If only 6 on one bank is not having any power supply, you have a break in the wiring connecting the 2 banks.

The attcahed diagrsm indicates the power resistor is after the power source.

At the B bank injectors, if there is no battery voltage at Pink/Black wire whereas you have voltage on the same wire on A bank, that indicates the B bank is not getting its power source from the ignition switch. There is a break in the wire continuity from ignition switch.

have not had time to check the wireing to the igniton switch but did power up pink and black wires that had no voltage.there were two, so the problem lies from there to the ignition switch to the module that poweres the injectors .car runs but floods out , will check to see if all the plugs are fireing .maybe some of the plugs are burned out from flooding . started to trace wires from module to ignition switch ,wich colour wire at the ignition switch would power up that circit. with thanks all your hele help has been awsome thank you jack .

You can try connecting the Pink/Black wire between the 2 banks and test if problem goes away. If yes, means there is a break in the wire harness where the two bank harness branches out.
