Fuel Injector Driver Circuit Performance Bank 2

What Does P062E Mean?

The PCM has detected that the fuel injector driver circuit for Bank 2 is not performing within its expected parameters. The internal driver transistors that control the injectors on Bank 2 are showing abnormal current draw or switching characteristics. This can affect fuel delivery to all cylinders on Bank 2.

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Measure resistance of each Bank 2 fuel injector — should be 11-17 ohms for high-impedance injectors. A significantly low reading indicates a shorted injector.

2

Step 2: Disconnect each Bank 2 injector one at a time and check if the code clears after a drive cycle — the injector that eliminates the fault is the cause.

3

Step 3: Check Bank 2 injector wiring for shorts to ground or B+ by measuring from each injector pin to chassis and B+ with connectors disconnected.

4

Step 4: Verify PCM power and ground circuits are within specification — voltage drop less than 0.5V on power, less than 0.1V on grounds.

5

Step 5: If all injectors and wiring test normal, the PCM internal Bank 2 driver has failed and the PCM needs replacement.
