'''Why are drivers still failing after replacing the injectors and harness? |

'''The flyback connection is 100%, I replaced the wire with another new wire, 18 awg, wired it myself, about 2 or 3 failed FETS ago. The grounds were replaced/soldered before that.

** to blow FETs, something must be very wrong. Most likely the voltage goes beyond 60V (overheating the FETs with these injectors is basically impossible). Should have been made with irf640 to survive insufficient flyback connection. But it was made to normal standard. Please write in order note next time: use irf640 for injector FETs. With good flyback-connection the FETs should never see overvoltage. |

***Flyback wire is 100% OK. I have checked and re-checked But it was made to normal standard. Please write in order note next time: use irf640 for injector FETs. With good flyback-connection the FETs should never see overvoltage. Are there any disadvantages to using irf640? If not, then why are they not the standard, if they are more durable? |
Check Flyback wire, check grounds, all check OK. |
