I upgarded to the Bosch 42lb injectors from stock. I’ve found the problem. Between a clogged fuel filter and the injectors dumping to much fuel and fouling the plugs that only had 2 hours minimum idle time on them. I swapped Back to the stock injectors and new plugs and she runs amazing. I’ll take the car to the tuner and have them dial her in for the new Iinjectors. Until then I’ll run these stock ones. But I’m having another problem here, hopefully you could walk me through it, I have No communication with the left door and right door module. I’ve checked and double checked my ground after cleaning them.
Thank you for your help,
Kyle

Your new 42 injectors are fine BUT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, You have to program in the new injector flow rates into the PCM for them to work correctly. When you go to have the car tuned, take them with you and have the Tuner program in the flow rates and it will be fine with the 42s

Make SURE that you give the tuner the injector DATA SHEET so he can set up the PCM correctly.

DOOR ISSUES:

Pop out the rubber accordion tube and fish the two connectors out of the hole in the door A pillar.

Disconnect the connectors. Remove the rubber boot.

Look carefully at the SIX PIN POWER PLUG. The Female pins will be SPREAD APART and make POOR connection.

You need to DISCONNECT the battery NEG Terminal, lable each wire position and pop out the pins and rebend the small tung that grips the male pin so that the connections are better in that plug.

Look at your DTCs and I bet you have NO COMMS with the door modules..
