Idm problems

I’ve got a 97 7:3: ran injector buzz test. Get idm fault code. I ordered one from dcp. Install it and get same code plus injector 5 high to low side open and number 5 doesn’t buzz, so I call dcp and they send me another one, I put it in and run test. Now I’m getting number 2 high to low open. Number 3 high to low open. Bank 1 high side open.bank 2 high side open. But all the injectors buzz. So for heck i put both idms in buddy truck. Get exact same issues and codes. I’m using a snap on solas pro scanner. Anybody else run into this?

Time to trouble shoot the wiring harness, specially on the IDM connector, seems you removed ian IDM and installed another IDM then cylinder 2 pop up see if the wires are not exposed and rubbing each other.
