I bet spark plug changes are a joy, mines a crossways (FWD)4 cam V6, the back three are covered by the induction gear PLUS wiring air inlet, breathers, wiring (about 8 plugs) and throttle linkage plus only platinum plugs at $11 each.

Go for the injector. It will be the most reliable source.

When all else fails, Read the Instructions

Try using a piece of metal coat hanger to get through the grommet.

I will repeat, now you know why we loathe getting involved in these unknown brands.

You've either dislodged a power or ground.

Dislodged the LED lead.

Failed LED.

Fried the unit.

Please be very careful using any sharp tools when trying to pass a wire thru a firewall grommet that has existing wires or harnesses.

Soldering is fun!

Good lesson to learn, "Never work on Citroens"! Drilling holes can be worse...

Soldering is fun!
