Hi, Strange one, I think.
2019 FORDKa+1.2 Ti-VCT (B2KA). Manual Transmission.
In neutral, revs fine, no problems or DTC.
In 1st gear, engine very anaemic. Virtually no power, wont rev much, can barely propel car forward at 1MPH max.
Trying to take off in 2nd, 3rd, 4th gears is exactly the same.
Generates fault codes for all three injectors open circuit which makes no sense to me. Doesn't seem logically possible. No other DTC.
In reverse, plenty of power and revs great. Can pull against handbrake and can go at normal speed. WTF??
I havent spent much time diagnosing it, wanting to have a think 1st. I'm thinking maybe a broken earth strap or loom wire that is ok with engine pushing one way, but not other? Doubt it, its too consistent. Gearbox mechanical failure? Gearbox switches (gear currently selected switches).
Any ideas would be welcome at this point. Thanks.
