What is MID 39:

MID 39 refers to an issue with the Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM). The ECM detects a malfunction in the fuel injector control system, which can result in poor fuel delivery, engine misfires, or reduced power.

Why This Happens:

  • Faulty Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM).
  • Shorted or damaged wiring in the FICM circuit.
  • Loose or corroded connectors.
  • Power supply issues affecting the FICM.
  • ECM failure to process the FICM’s data correctly.

How to Fix It:

  1. Inspect the FICM and wiring for visible damage or malfunction.
  2. Test the FICM to ensure it is operating correctly and sending the proper signals.
  3. Check connectors for cleanliness and tightness.
  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.
  • Keep connectors clean and free from corrosion.
  • Perform routine diagnostic checks to monitor FICM performance.
  • Ensure stable power supply to the FICM and ECM communication.
  • Clue’s Fuel Management services track injector control systems and prevent issues before they affect engine operation.
