SPN 652 FMI 3 — Injector Cylinder 2 Circuit Voltage Above Normal

Medium–High Severity

SPN 652 FMI 3 — Injector Cylinder 2 Circuit Voltage Above Normal

Cylinder 2 injector open codes are localized electrical diagnosis. Incomplete connector latch after injector service is the most documented cause.

Fault Overview

SPN 652 FMI 3 indicates the cylinder 2 injector circuit voltage is above the valid maximum — an open circuit or high-signal class fault. Unseated connector, open harness branch, failed injector, pass-through issues, and corrosion are the primary causes.

Engine & Platform Coverage

Electronic injector diesel platforms — HD/MD/LD

Possible Causes

  1. 1.Incomplete connector latch after injector service
  2. 2.Open harness branch at cylinder 2 branch point
  3. 3.Failed cylinder 2 injector with internal open element
  4. 4.Pass-through pin backout under-valve-cover
  5. 5.Corrosion at cylinder 2 injector connector

Wiring & Circuit Notes

Inspect the cylinder 2 connector lock and shared under-cover connectors first. Check for chafe at brackets near cylinder 2. Insulation checks before re-actuation.

DVOM Specs & Sensor Tests

Measure injector resistance — OL or high versus OEM specification supports open circuit. Check continuity from driver to injector. Isolate harness versus injector. Replace injector only if internal open is proven after harness is confirmed clean. Injector coding may be required after replacement.
