Injector Harness Question

Can someone test their front Injector harness on a VG Motor for me and see if they are getting 12 Volts with the car off? I was just putting the test leads in one of my connector's with the car off so I could make sure it was getting Voltage, and sure enough it is...but with the Key out. I didnt expect to see anything until I had cranked it or at least put it in the ON position.

I wonder if this is what is Draining my battery....maybe the ECM is messing with me. Bah!

are you testing both terminals on the injector? the injectors, iirc, get a constant +12v, but don't do anything until the ecu sends a -(12v) signal.

correct. most computer controlled parts use a ground as the on/off rather than the +

I can also vouch that there is +12V to one of each injector's connector terminals with the ignition off. Surprised me as well!
