The injector solenoid circuits are the supply and return wires in the actuator harness. The wires go from the ECM connector to a 15-pin connector in the rocker lever housing. The 15-pin connector connects the external and internal actuator harness. The internal harness goes to each injector. Three of the wires operate the engine brake actuator circuits.
The resistance value of the injector solenoid circuit is very low. The solenoid resistance is also temperature sensitive. To read an accurate resistance value, the resistance of the multimeter mustbe subtracted from the total resistance of the injector solenoid circuit.
Use a multimeter for this procedure. Use Cummins multimeter, Part No. 3377161, or a meter with the same accuracy of ±1/2 percent.
Turn the multimeter on. Set the meter range to the lowest ohm scale. Measure the resistance across the two test probes. This is the multimeter resistance value which will be subtracted from the injector solenoid resistance value.
