Hello everyone. I'm working on a Cat P5000 and no start when cold , engine runs fine when using B12 to start. So far I've replaced the injector holder with everything already assembled , including new injector. I checked voltage at the injector plug while turning over engine and got 3 volts going to the injector , from what I read the injector needs 10.5 volts for a rich condition to start. I pulled the plugs from the injector driver and the ECM and found the pulses from the cam and crank sensors , so I know they both work. I checked the voltage coming out of the driver unit and still the same voltage , 3 volts. At this point fingers are pointing at the injector driver. If anyone has anymore info on the principles of operation for the starting system , between the ECM and the injector driver please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
