Default Fuel Injector Question

Hey TR,
I was checking all of my Injector connectors, and one of the wires arent working,wonder how I know? the car has a miss in it...Anyways,
I put a test light on it, and one side lights up bright, but the opposite side flickers...and I took off another FI connector, and only one side lights up bright, and the other side has nothing(Those injectors are wroking)
and I was wondering if you knew if i would need a new connector?
Hope it makes sense...
If a repost sorry.

ground side wire (control) short to positive? were you testing before the injector connector or at the terminals?

well it might not be the connector then. if your control wire is loose or shorted then you need to repair the wire. then again it could be something entirely different, like ecm side issues.

just a thought, im just gonna fix it though.

the connector doesnt have the clip on it, just sits there,
wonder if that would cause any problems.....
I'll prolly just take it off, and see if there is any wire bad on it.

I think im more confused than you are now. you cant fix it until you know whats wrong. a loose connection would obviously cause problems, although i dont know whats going on with your car. your better off taking your car somewhere, diag and repair doesnt happen over the internetz.

lmao, sorry dude, idk how else to put it...
ok, well the car runs, cylender 3 is dead, its getting spark, and when you pull off the FI connector it doesnt do a damn thing, still has the dead cylender. so, idk.
