just a suggestion, try unplugging the fuel injectors, and plug back in, that could help if there is a bad connection.
Good Luck

The misfire code is almost always caused by a bad
injector.

You need to check the connection, the ASD volt side
same as batt volts and the driver to computer wire
from plug to computer pin no resistance

If thats ok and you replace the injectors and
still get the code I hate to say it but than its
an internal failure with the computer itself

I do not know why but there have been about a
dozen obd2 computers I have seen go bad this way

check the wires and injectors yourself

change out #1 and 5 injectors with the
#2 and 6 from the other bank and see what happens
if 2 and 6 come up bad its the injectors

If still 1 and 5 check wires if good get a used
or reman computer and you will also have to have
the vin and mileage flashed into the new comp
or it will not run

Good Luck hope its just the easy stuff
