Did you make sure that the injectors are receiving 12 volts when the key is on/running? The PCM should only ground the injectors, so make sure that the injectors have power before replacing the PCM.

thanks all.
i will check this tomorrow morning, but i think the injectors have 12V with ignition on.
but i check it again.
i´m a little confused.
when this 2 injectors become not a impulse (Ground) they are closed.
the fuel in the exhaust makes me crazy.
tomorrow morning i remove the fuel rail with the 6 injectors to inspect this crazy things.

the last test is done. ;)
 i pull out the injectors with the fuel-rail and go to ignition.
 from injector 5 + 6 comes full power fuel, the other 4 are ok.
 the next step, i pull of the electrical connectors from injector 5 and 6 and go to ignition.
 now are all 6 injectors ok.
 fail signal from PCM ? ???

That is a smart test.
Looks like a motor management failure.
Can you swap connectors or swap injectors to find out where the fault is?

Good to hear. It's nice to get to the root of the problem without having replaced things that aren't broken.
