/ Bosch CRIN 4.2 (Detroit DD15) online course

There's a filter hidden inside this injector. Blocked, it fires nothing at all.

The CRIN 4.2 is the Detroit DD15 injector: two coils, two valves and a pressure amplifier inside its own body, plus a micro filter that has to be thread-cut and pulled out. This course covers the filter, both coils, the amplifier valve stroke and the tool that keeps two unreplaceable pins from snapping.

/ The real problem

This injector breaks during disassembly. And what breaks isn't sold separately.

Two solenoid pins snap the moment the nut turns without the right tool. They are part of the body. When they go, the whole injector goes with them, before the rebuild has even started.

01 / The pins

Two pins, no part number, whole injector lost

The solenoid nut cannot be turned without locking the solenoid first. If it spins, the two electrical pins shear, and they aren't sold on their own. The tool that prevents it is shown in Lesson 01.

02 / The filter

A micro filter most techs never knew was there

It sits inside the injector body. Threads are cut into it and it is pulled out with the extraction tool. Blocked, no fuel enters and the injector doesn't fire, with everything else perfect.

03 / The two coils

Two coils, two completely different ranges

Coil A runs 1.3 to 1.9 Ω and 500 to 550 mH. Coil B runs 0.5 to 0.9 Ω and 300 to 370 mH. Judge both against one range and you'll condemn a healthy coil or pass a dead one.

/ The numbers

One stroke, two coils, measured separately.

The CRIN 4.2 is measured differently from a single-coil injector. These are the numbers the lessons work with, read on camera.

Measurement 01

Amplifier valve stroke (AH)

0.48–0.52Millimeters

Factory value is 0.50 mm with a 0.02 mm tolerance. Measured with the valve mounted in its tool, torqued to 20 Nm. Corrected with the shim under the solenoid.

Measurement 02

Coil A

1.3–1.9 Ω500 to 550 mH

The first solenoid. Reads 1.42 Ω and 527 mH in the lesson, both in range on the diagnostic station.

Measurement 03

Coil B

0.5–0.9 Ω300 to 370 mH

The second solenoid, with its own range. Reads 0.68 Ω and 336 mH. Insulation on both must stay above 100 MΩ.

/ What's inside

Four lessons, start to finish.

70 minutes filmed at the bench, including the micro filter that, in the instructor's words, some people don't know is there.

Lesson 0127 min

Complete teardown

The disassembly where this injector is most likely to be destroyed.

  • Locking the solenoid so the two pins survive the nut
  • The amplifier valve pin and the AH shim underneath it
  • Long glued threads, and why the glue stays on
  • Splitting the pressure amplifier from the injector core
  • The nozzle stack with the DFK idle shim
  • Thread-cutting and extracting the hidden micro filter
Lesson 0225 min

Grinding and full assembly

Sealing surfaces first, then everything back in order.

  • Grinding both faces of the intensifier body and two surfaces on the injector
  • Assembling the valve, shim, spring and coil as one stack
  • Torque map: 80 Nm housing, 30 Nm solenoid nut, 100 Nm nozzle nut
  • The thin and thick plates and which way each cut faces
  • The DFK shim that controls everything under 400 bar
  • Guide pins that stop the solenoid wires from tearing
Lesson 039 min

Mechanical validation

Measuring the valve stroke that sets internal pressure.

  • Mounting the valve in its measuring tool at 20 Nm
  • Reading stroke against the 0.48 to 0.52 mm window
  • Which shim to change, and in which direction
  • Reassembling and re-torquing to 80 Nm
Lesson 049 min

Electrical validation

Two coils, three tests, one diagnostic station.

  • Resistance and inductance for coil A and coil B, separately
  • Why lower inductance means higher volume on this injector
  • Insulation above 100 MΩ on both circuits
  • Replacing the full external o-ring set, including the high pressure connector

/ Before you enroll

Questions from the bench.

Course access, tools, experience and the practical details. The things to know before you enroll.

What tools do I need?+

A vise plus the solenoid-locking tool for this injector, the nozzle nut and valve wrenches for the CRIN 4.2, a torque wrench covering 20 to 100 Nm, the filter thread-cutting and extraction tools, diamond grinding tools with cutting oil, and a diagnostic station that reads both coils. Every tool is shown and named on screen as it's used.

What is the hidden filter?+

A micro filter inside the injector body. Threads are cut into it and it is pulled out with an extraction tool. If it blocks, no fuel enters the injector and it will not fire, even with everything else in perfect condition. Lesson 01 shows the whole extraction.

Why does this injector have two coils?+

Because it carries a pressure amplifier inside its own body: two solenoids and two valves, one of them for the amplifier. Each coil has its own resistance and inductance range.

My test bench is a different brand. Does that matter?+

No. The adjustments in the course are mechanical: shims, strokes and torques read on a dial gauge. Electrical reference values can vary between testers, so check a known-good injector on your own equipment.

Is this for beginners or experienced techs?+

Both. Every part is explained as it comes out, so you can start without prior injector experience. The tolerances and calibration methods are what experienced techs come for.

What language are the lessons in?+

English, with captions.

What if it's not what I expected?+

The course carries a 7-day guarantee. Request a refund within 7 days of purchase and you get your money back.
