2, 4 and 6 injectors are batch fired together. Those cylinders probably aren't getting fuel.

Your six injectors are fired three at a time by the computer, they are fired in two batches of three. They have power with the key on and the computer gives the ground to fire them.

C'mon man, you said you're an electrical guy. Check for power and trigger ground. Unlike a house, there is no neutral.
