This paper discusses a method of diagnosing electromagnetic valves of injection systems in combustion engines. Based on multiple analyses of electrical quantities occurring in the course of the electromagnetic injector work and physical relationships between them, the quantities have been demonstrated on which the fluctuation of the electromagnetic force in the injector depends. Moreover, the results of its fluctuations have been mapped to the electric quantities controlling the fuel injector's work. The research has shown that the current and voltage waveforms contain information on electrical properties of the injector coil and its mechanical properties determining the injector's technical health as well as that of the fuel system.
