Read This First

This code identifies the failed diagnostic test or circuit family. Confirm the basic checks before replacing parts, and keep freeze-frame data until the repair is verified.

Common Checks

  • Inspect cylinder 7 ignition parts and injector connector.
  • Swap-test the coil or plug and monitor whether the misfire moves.
  • Check compression if ignition and injector checks pass.

Common Repairs

  • Replace the failed ignition, boot, wire, plug, or injector component.
  • Repair wiring or mechanical faults when the misfire stays on cylinder 7.
