Laymans terms

This code means that there's a problem with the electrical part of the fuel injector for cylinder 4 in your car. It's like when a toy's battery is running low and it doesn't work right.

Explanation

The code indicates an issue with the electrical circuit that controls the fuel injector for cylinder 4, specifically that the voltage is lower than expected.

Technical description

The P3113 code is triggered when the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects a low voltage condition in the low side circuit of the high-pressure fuel injector for cylinder 4. This can affect the injector's ability to deliver the correct amount of fuel to the engine.

Symptoms

• Engine misfire

• Poor fuel economy

• Check Engine Light illuminated

Common Causes

• Faulty fuel injector

• Wiring issues in the injector circuit

• Malfunctioning ECM
