Injector Coding Information

Common rail diesel fuel injectors require calibration codes to account for small manufacturing differences between injectors. These codes specify injection parameters and are encoded either alphabetically or hexadecimally depending on the manufacturer. Code length and format can also vary between older and newer emission standard injectors from manufacturers like Bosch, Siemens, Denso, and Delphi. All codes incorporate checksums to validate proper coding in the engine control unit.

Injector coding - General information

Common rail diesel fuel injectors require calibration, which describe the characteristics of each
individual injector. Due to fine tolerances, it is impossible to produce injectors with the same
characteristics. Calibration of the injectors serves to compensate these small differences in
injection characteristics. Injector calibration code is used to specify injection parameters such as
EM/EP, LL/ID, VL/FL, VE/PI, ISA and QS. These injector-specific parameters are encoded within
the injector calibration code.

Bosch common-rail diesel injectors


Bosch injectors codes (IMA codes) use hexadecimal encoding (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D,
E, F) or letters 1, 2, 3 , 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, K, L, M, N, O, P, R, S, T, U, V, W, X,
Y, Z (J, Q, 0 and 9 are excluded).

All injector codes are checksum-protected against mistyping and our diagnostic applications
validate injectors codes before coding it in the control unit.

Injector classification class


Each injector has a given classification class (C1, C2, C3).

6 characters of Bosch alphabet / 8 hexadecimal string


The length of the code is 6 characters (eg G1AANS) or 8 hexadecimal digits (4 bytes) (eg
B083CF01). It is an electromagnetic (solenoid) injector (EURO3).

7 characters of Bosch alphabet / 10 hexadecimal string


The length of the code is 7 characters (eg 8ZSH5WH) or 10hex digits (5 bytes) (eg 002FC08038).
This is a piezoelectric injector (EURO4).

9 hexadecimal string
The length of the code is 9 hexadecimal digits (eg FDDF5FF83).

9 characters of Bosch alphabet


The length of the code is 9 characters (eg BBSNBOCCU) (EURO5)

Siemens VDO / Continental common-rail diesel injectors


Siemens/VDO injector use only letters 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L,
M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.

Injector classification class


All injectors can be coded to one class at a time (4, 5, 6).

6 characters of ASCII uppercase alphabet


The length of the code is 6 characters (eg 9AEFBD)
7 characters of ASCII uppercase alphabet
The length of the code is 7 characters (eg 6TDCEGF)

9 characters of ASCII uppercase alphabet


The length of the code is 9 characters (eg 9GCD9CKG0)

Denso common-rail diesel injectors


Denso injectors use only hexadecimal encoding (0..9 and A..F)

All injector codes are checksum-protected against mistyping and our diagnostic applications
validate injectors codes before coding it in the control unit.

12 hexadecimal value
The length of the code is 12 hexadecimal digits (eg ).

16 hexadecimal value
The length of the code is 16 hexadecimal digits (eg F0001300001000F3).

24 hexadecimal value
The length of the code is 24 hexadecimal digits (eg ).

30 hexadecimal value
The length of the code is 30 hexadecimal digits (eg ).

Delphi common-rail diesel injectors


Delphi injectors use hexadecimal encoding (0..9 and A..F) or numbers and letters 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, R, S, T, U, W, X, Y, Z (I, O, Q and V are
excluded).

16 hexadecimal string - C2I code


The length of the code is 16 hexadecimal digits (eg 8C217BCC2CB10387).

20 numbers and letters - C3I code


The length of the code is 20 numbers and letters (eg J70XX082NDYZGS7W2515).
