Fuel injector testing harness

Claim 2

An electrical wiring harness for testing the fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, said harness containing a plurality of electrical conductor pairs, each pair comprising: a) a first continuous electrical conductor; b) a second electrical conductor; and c) a switch connected to said second electrical conductor and disposed in series therewith to affect selective electrical continuity or discontinuity of said second electrical conductor, a first electrical connector array disposed on one end of said harness, said array having a plurality of discrete electrical connectors, each said connector corresponding to one end of each said first and said second electrical conductors, each said connector further having a physical and electrical configuration matable with an electrical connector of the electronic fuel injection harness of the electronic control module on an internal combustion engine, and a second electrical connector array disposed on the opposite end of said harness, said second electrical connector array having a plurality of second individual connectors, one of each said second individual connectors electrically corresponding to one of each said discrete electrical connectors and disposed and adapted for physical and electrical connection of one of said second individual electrical connectors to an electronic fuel injector device mounted on said engine.

Claim 3

The invention of claim 1, wherein each said switch is mounted on a common switch-carrying console.

Claim 4

The invention of claim 2, wherein said switch-carrying console is electrically connected to said plurality of conductors by a wire extension of sufficient length to permit location of the switch-carrying console in the operator's compartment of a vehicle utilizing said internal combustion engine, during operation of said internal combustion engine.

Claim 5

An electrical wiring harness for testing the fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, said harness containing a plurality of electrical conductor pairs, each pair comprising: a) a first continuous electrical conductor; b) a second electrical conductor; c) a switch connected to said second electrical conductor and disposed in series therewith to affect selective electrical continuity or discontinuity of said second electrical conductor; d) an electrically operable visual indicator associated with said switch, whereby said indicator presents a visual signal upon operation of said switch; and a first electrical connector array disposed on one end of said harness, said array having a plurality of discrete electrical connectors, each said connector corresponding to one end of each said first and said second electrical conductors, each said connector further having a physical and electrical configuration matable with an electrical connector of the electronic fuel injection harness of the electronic control module on an internal combustion engine, and a second electrical connector array disposed on the opposite end of said harness, said second electrical connector array having a plurality of second individual connectors, each disposed and adapted for physical and electrical connection of one of said second individual electrical connectors to an electronic fuel injector device mounted on said engine.

Claim 6

An electrical wiring harness for testing the fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, said harness containing a plurality of electrical conductor pairs, each pair comprising: a) a first continuous electrical conductor; b) a second electrical conductor; c) a switch connected to said second electrical conductor and disposed in series therewith to affect selective electrical continuity or discontinuity of said second electrical conductor; d) an electrically operable visual indicator associated with said switch, whereby said indicator presents a visual signal upon operation of said switch; and a first electrical connector array disposed on one end of said harness, said array having a plurality of discrete electrical connectors, each said connector corresponding to one end of each said first and said second electrical conductors, each said connector further having a physical and electrical configuration matable with an electrical connector of the electronic fuel injection harness of the electronic control module on an internal combustion engine, and a second electrical connector array disposed on the opposite end of said harness, said second electrical connector array having a plurality of second individual connectors, each disposed and adapted for physical and electrical connection of one of said second individual electrical connectors to an electronic fuel injector device mounted on said engine.

Claim 7

The invention according to claim 4, which further comprises an electrically non-conductive, abrasion-resistant and waterproof sheath and closing said plurality of electrical conductor pairs.
