P0205 CADILLAC - Injector 5 Control Circuit...Possible causes; Faulty fuel injector 5, Fuel Injector 5 harness is open or shorted, Fuel injector 5 circuit poor electrical connection...If an electrical malfunction occurs in the fuel injector circuit for engine cylinder #5, the ignition feed driver signals the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to set the P0205 code..............This is why you have the po305 engine code.

GuruC63M4, I am curious to what exactly your 2006 Cadillac DTS V8 Northstar was doing. How it was running. I'm having similar problems and would be amazed if it was just a fuse. Also where was the fuse located
