Signal Waveform

The three waveforms below are taken from injectors No. 1 and No. 4. The upper waveform is taken on the high-pressure side (supply side) of injectors No. 1 and No. 4. The middle waveform is taken on the low-pressure side (ground side) of injector No. 1, and the bottom waveform is taken on the low-side of injector No. 4. The middle waveform is the same as the upper one because there is no ground for the circuit. When there is no current in the circuit, injector No. 1 is not energized and fuel does not flow. The lower trace shows that ground is supplied and there is a voltage drop across injector No. 4. When current flows in the circuit, injector No. 4 is energized and fuel flows.
