DTC P1261 (Flash Code 34) Injector Positive Voltage Control Circuit Group 1 (RZ4E-TC)

1. DTC P1261 description

The charge-up circuit within the ECM increases the voltage applied to the injector. The charge-up circuit is divided into 2 banks: common power supply 1 and common power supply 2. Common power supply 1 serves the injectors of cylinders No. 1 and No. 4, and common power supply 2 serves the injectors of cylinders No. 2 and No. 3. If there is an insufficient or excessive charge in the common power supply 1 injector charge-up circuit in the ECM, the DTC is set (Charge-up voltage DTC). If the supply voltage is excessively low or high in the common power supply 1 and 2 injector charge-up circuits, this DTC is set (Supply voltage low or high DTC).
