Hi guys..
i have a 1992...toyota...truck..with 100 plus miles and the engine is a 22RE motor....one day it stalled and would not start..well my dad replaced the basics and yet no start..we traced it down to there being no 12 volts coming to the fuel injectors from the computer..but we are not sure if there is a relay or fuse between the injectors and computer or just the straight shoot from the computer to the F.I...can you help..thanks sean

Your power should be coming from the ignition switch or EFI main relay. You should have power when you turn the key to On position. Your ground is coming from circuit 10/20 this is where the computer goes in, to provide the ground to energizes
the injectors.

Check for spark, no spark the ECM will kill the injector by not recieving the Ne or G signal.

Suggested Repair

Check for injector power from the ignition switch or EFI main relay with the key on. The ECM supplies the injector ground on circuit 10/20 rather than constant 12 volts. Also check for spark; if spark is absent, the ECM may not pulse the injectors because it is not receiving the Ne or G signal. Do not replace the ECM based only on this symptom.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1992 Toyota truck with a 22RE engine reported a stall and no-start, with no 12 volts reaching the fuel injectors, and asked whether a relay or fuse was involved. The expert explained that injector power comes from the ignition switch or EFI main relay, while the computer provides the ground. The expert also advised checking spark, since missing Ne or G signals can stop injector operation. The owner incorrectly concluded that the ECM should be replaced.
