This is a message for those who have access to ECM proprietary data stored for the affected vehicles.
I need to know if it can / does records a voltage / current spike surge at the fuel injection power circuits.
Something that would give a gross indication as to whether there was an energy surge (both voltage and / or current) just before or after a failure of the HPFP.
Or surges even months before... as per ground fault hypothesis above.
Interesting development with the injector electronics...a very good friend of mine, an Electrical Engineer, was a lead designer for the injectors at Bosch. When my injector failed in February 2011, he told me about a known circuit board issue that they had after releasing the design to production. He was right on with his description of the behavior of my truck as the injector intermittently posted a CEL. Is it related...do not know but when I see him I will ask.
Unfortunately for the Bosch discussion, he has taken a major job advancement and no longer works for Bosch. He is now a lead engineer at a major player in the development of hybrid car motor and battery components.
