What is CID 2 & How to Solve It?

What is CID 2:

CID 2 refers to an issue with the fuel injector control system. The ECM detects abnormal signals that could affect the fuel injector’s operation, causing improper fuel delivery and resulting in misfires, stalling, or poor fuel economy. This issue may be caused by a faulty fuel injector control module or wiring issues.

‍

Why This Happens:

• Faulty fuel injector control module (FICM).
  
• Damaged or shorted wiring in the injector control circuit.
  
• Loose or corroded connectors.
  
• Power supply issues affecting the FICM.
  
• ECM failure to properly interpret data.
  
  

How to Fix It:

1. Inspect the fuel injector control module (FICM) and wiring.
   
2. Test the FICM and ensure it is operating correctly.
   
3. Check connectors for tightness and cleanliness.
   
4. Replace the faulty FICM if necessary.
   
5. Ensure stable power supply to the FICM and ECM communication.
   
   

How to Avoid It Before It Happens:

• Regularly inspect the FICM and wiring for damage.
  
• Perform routine diagnostic checks to monitor injector control performance.
  
• Keep connectors clean and free from corrosion.
  
• Clue’s fuel management services help track fuel injector systems to prevent malfunctions before they affect performance.
