Technical Fiat Panda Misfire

[lsmith12345]

Hi guys
Another problem on my panda started it up today and it ran okay for about a minute then started shaking. There is a clear misfire and an engine light on. When plugged into OBD it reads injector circuit/open cylinder 1 and there is a horrendous burning smell from the exhaust. It’s a 2007 1.2 Dynamic. Any advice on what’s happened in correspondence to the OBD code? Thanks

I’ve figured out the problem. How this has happened I don’t know.

Is it running ok now you have plugged the injector back in circuit ??

Over...

 

[lsmith12345]

No somehow the connector has snapped clean off leaving the copper like this:
It needs something to bridge the gap for the connector to fire

When was anyone under the bonnet last ?

A little while back and it was Me. Only me. I just need some sort of solution to make that copper connect with the copper terminals on the injector because that’s the whole reason it’s not working

Can you solder the copper together, even with flying copper wire ?

I could try, but after I’ve bought all that and risk it still not working, the bit I need is only £20 so I might just bite the bullet

Bye the part for £20, no brianer, just get the new part...

Pretty sure all the 1.2 injector harnesses are the same
