Sean , it is a good idea to ALWAYS go back to basics when trying to solve a problem like you have and not replace a lot of parts.. Before you do anything check ALL fuses.
The power to the injectors come directly from the ignition switch on a red/black wire.. It is a separate portion of the switch that is fed 12V from fuse AM-2. It is either one of the following.
1 Bad fuse
2. Bad ignition sw (rare)
3. Broken connection where the wires split to go to the ignitor. Check the red/black wire on the ignitor. If that has 12V then the problem is the connection where 4 wires are connected. If not the problem is either the switch or the fuse.
Good luck
