Default PO205 and PO305

So my car has been hesitating here and there and giving me this 2 codes PO205 and PO305 which are a open circuit on the 5th injector and a misfire on cylinder 5. i Change the coil from cylinder 3 to 5 and from 5 to 3 and see if the problem persist on Cylinder 5. Which it did stay on cylinder 5 so last night i swapped injector 3 to injector 5 and wipe the injectors with a clean rag and so far no codes or problems. My question to you guys would be... What would you guys recommend or suggest i do next if the problem persist again???? i hope i explained myself right and you guys understand what i wrote.

I would recommend getting a can of CRC electrical contact cleaner, disconnecting all the injector connectors and cleaning them along with the top of the injectors where the connectors plug in. P0205 refers to an open circuit. The connector on #5 was not making good contact. You solved the problem by swapping injectors, but the injector was not the real problem. When you attached the connector to the injector you fixed the (open) in the circuit and solved the problem.
