Fuel pump works fine if I wire it straight to battery. injectors have juice with test light just don't pulse. what is going on? I am on the verge of selling it for scrap and its way down. so please help me and my truck from scrap yard.

Hello,

This could be a problem with your vehicle's Engine Control Unit[ECU] or a power or ground wire that goes to the ECU. n the diagrams down below I have included the fuel pump circuit wiring diagram and the engine control wiring diagram which shows the fuel injectors circuit. I have also included a diagnostic troubleshooting guide that explains how to test the fuel injector circuit to pinpoint what your vehicle's problem is from the vehicle manufacturer. You will need to use a Digital Multi-meter [DMM] to go through these guides, so here is a link below explaining how to use one, if needed:

Please go through these guides and get back to us with what you find out.

Thanks,
