P1247 GMC Meaning
The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides voltage to each fuel injector on the positive voltage injector control circuits. The ECM powers each fuel injector by grounding that fuel injector’s control circuit. The ECM monitors the status of the positive voltage injector control circuits and the fuel injector control circuits. When a fuel injector circuit condition is detected by the ECM, the affected fuel injectors will be disabled and may disable the related fuel injector group. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set when the ECM injector output driver detects incorrect current on a fuel injector circuit.
