so we got the mini van in todaay, Its a rebuilt van (rebuilder title) any way it says no 5 inject circuit.. so we repaird the inj harness... and then repaced the 5 inj.. van still misses and shows same code... now im sitting at home going though all data.. and it says it could be the asd relay? if it checks good then ck wiring if thats good its the pcm.

anyone have this code before? what was your fix? I didnt now the asd relay could cause a 5 misfire inj circuit..

oh if the asd relay was acting up, would it set multiple missfires not just the #5 inj open code? P0205.

What do you mean by repaired the circuit? Was there a fault, or did you just replace the wiring? Have you tried scoping out the # 5 injector circuit? Also it may be a false code caused by a bad pcm.

That is a "crossfire" engine. Make sure you have really identified injector #5. The injector will be on the OPPOSITE side of the intake from the #5 cylinder. Additionally, check for trash in the end of the injector rail. If trash gets past the filter it usually ends up at the back of the rail.

Good luck

ok here is what found when the hood was open..

towards the front, drivers side, the 6 inj wiring was frayed.. fixed that.. it ran better.. pcv hose off, fixed that.. now after the codes were reset.. it still has number 5 circuit mal-function. so i pulled the plenum off, checked the wiring under it.. it all looked good..ohmed out the inj and it was approx 12.9 range..used a noid light to check the wiring, it flashed as it should have. I dont think that inj is bad..it ohmed like all the others.. it has a bad miss, also if i pull number 5 wire off the coil pack nothing changes still runs the same.
fire wall
now the inj order is pass side 1-3-5 driver side
2-4-6
radiator
thanks again

so if i understood you right, number 5 cly which is in the back of the engine all the way towards the driver side/firewal isnt the number 5 inj? the number 5 inject is the one on the front driver side?
