The injectors are 120VDC, and the common (center terminal) is the positive. The individual injector wires on each connector are grounded in their turn by the IDM to complete the circuit. Given that it's now #5 and #7, that passenger rear connector, and its corresponding connections under the valve cover, are the prime suspects. Did you include the common center terminal in your continuity tests?

I tested from the injector itself to the IDM.

So you checked both terminals at each injector?
