Pulled the injector, looks burned at the tip. Does anyone know of a link I can look at to compare mine to?

C13888B (X2 ) , the middle one
P0269 = when maximum / minimum. Pulse width adder is exceeded a fault is set. Cylinder weak due to mechanical problem or injectors are not contributing necessary volume of fuel. ( but you already knew that )

the plug mentioned above^^You will check pins

Pins #
4 & 19 these two go to the Open Coil of Injector #3
8 & 20 these two go to the Close Coil of Injector #3

when you unplug it from the FICM you will see some numbers on the end of the Plug

Swap the Injector to a Diffrent hole and see if the problem Moves

Checking harness for continuity and load test is about all you can do for that

Ans a Bubble test and Ohm the Coils out for the injector is all I know could be the coils are getting Weak IDK

Only other thing could be a Bad Driver for that Inject in the FICM

Swap inject location see if it Moves
