    What Does P0282 Mean?

    OBD-II Code Decreased engine performance is defined as a Cylinder 8 Injector Circuit Low

    The engine control module (PCM) has special transistors called "drivers" to turn the Fuel Injectors on and off in the Fuel Injection System. If the PCM cannot control the fuel injector, it will set code P0282.

    What are the common causes of P0282 ?

    Conditions that may cause this DTC (diagnostic trouble code) to set include:
    • A dirty or plugged fuel injector
    • A faulty fuel injector
    • An open or short in the fuel injector circuitry
    • Corroded or loose connectors at the cylinder 8 fuel injector
    • A problem with the fuel injector driver within the PCM
    How do you troubleshoot P0282 ?

    Check to make sure they are not burnt or corroded. If in doubt, get some Electrical Contact cleaner at any parts store if cleaning of the terminals is needed. With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground.

    Process Tips

    Diagnostic trouble code P0282 is not difficult to diagnose and repair. Thus, it always pays to have a qualified technician to look after your vehicle should this error code arise.

    Diagnosing this code requires the engine to be in good running shape, without unmetered air entering the engine. If other codes that relates to misfiring condition, lean running or air entering the engine is present, then you must first fix those error codes before P0282.

    Fortunately, P0282 is a fairly common OBD code, meaning that it applies to all makes and models of vehicles made after 1996.
