With the key on, you can ground each of those wires and listen for the injector click as it opens and closes.
LG/B is "light green w/Black stripe" as the letter L by itself means Blue.

Where did you get this emission harness from as both S4 and S5 have the same injector wire colors?

Just checking but how many wires does your smallest ECU plug have as it should be eight in number? Does pin 3H and pin 3F have battery voltage w/key to on or did you already state they don't?

ok i was just removing my UIM and noticed my vaccum line to the master cylinder wasnt hooked up and was not capped as well. Which if im thinking correctly would be a big *** vaccum leak thus causeing it not to start. is that correct?

could be but i would think the motor would still start just not idle while ur UMI is off check your injector plugs as per the FSM depending on the year of harness

When you tested for voltage w/the ECU plug removed did any of the other three ECU injector pins have voltage w/key to on?

I don't think there is a relationship but how about disconnecting the CAS plug at the CAS and recheck pin 3E for voltage w/key to on one more time and check for voltage at the other injector pins as well to see if there is a difference.

ok well i was using my test light on the injectors and noticed the front primary wasnt lighting up. so i pulled the plug on it and somehow the pins in the plug came out. so i took it apart and repinned it and new it wouldnt run but figured id see if it wanted to and sure enough it started for about 1-2 seconds and died (cause no maf,UIM hooked up ect). so now im at a crossroads. do i put the UIM back on and try to start or is there more troubleshooting i need to do under there first

The car won't run w/o the AFM hooked up unless the fuel check connector is jumpered but I am not completely certain about that.

well she runs. boggs a little but i gota adjust throttle cable, retime it again cause i moved my CAS a little. but im a dumbass (obviously) and didnt tighten down all the bolts on my fan and i bet you wont be able to guess what happened? but as of now it is running (fanless) but it seems the injector plug was the problem. thanks to everyone for theyre million replies helping me

Oh I deff did. I greatly appreciate all the help. I would still be troubleshooting. Looking at some of my post the answer was there. I mentioned many times it has to be a fuel issue. Lol. But credit goes to you guys definitely. Still got to get it running perfect. Still stalls when not pushing gas peddle. But that's probably throttle cable not adjusted and intercooler piping leaking a bit cause I have crappy clamps

Check MAF
Check Fuel
Check CPS
Check check injectors
of coarse vaccum leaks
