Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK OPERATION OF ENGINE CRANKING 
    1. When turning the ignition switch to the START position check if the starter motor starts.

    OK: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS 

    NG: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  2. READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER (STA SIGNAL) 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the CAN VIM. Then connect the CAN VIM to the DLC3.
    2. Enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBDII / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / STARTER SIG.
    3. Confirm the starter signal status when the ignition switch is operated.

      OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

      STA SIGNAL

      Ignition Switch Position STARTER SIG
      ON OFF
      Start ON

    OK: Go to step   5 

    NG: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  3. INSPECT ECM (STA AND STSW VOLTAGE) 
    1. Measure the voltage of the E7 ECM connector while cranking the engine (ignition switch is in the START position).

      Standard voltage 

      ECM (STA AND STSW VOLTAGE) (1 OF 2)

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      E7-11 (STA) - E7-1 (E1) 9 to 14 V
      E7-12 (STSW) - E7-1 (E1) 9 to 14 V

      Result 

      ECM (STA AND STSW VOLTAGE) (2 OF 2)

      Terminal STSW Terminal STA Proceed to
      9 to 14 V 9 to 14 V A
      9 to 14 V 0 V B
      0 V 0 V C

    B: REPLACE ECM 

    C: Go to step   9 

    A: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  4. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH 
    1. Disconnect the P1 park/neutral position switch connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between each terminal shown in PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH  when the shift lever is moved to each position.

      Standard resistance 

      PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH

      Shift Position Tester Connection Specified Condition
      P or N 4 - 5 Below 1 Ω

    3. Reconnect the park/neutral position switch connector.

    NG: REPLACE PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH 

    OK: CHECK AND REPAIR HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - ECM) 

  5. INSPECT STARTER RELAY 
    1. Remove the starter relay from the engine room relay block.
    2. Measure the resistance of the starter relay.

      Standard resistance 

      STARTER RELAY

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      3 - 5 10 kΩ or higher
      3 - 5 Below 1 Ω
      (when battery voltage applied to terminals 1 and 2)

    3. Reinstall the starter relay.

    NG: REPLACE STARTER RELAY 

    OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - STARTER RELAY, STARTER RELAY - BODY GROUND) 
    1. Check harness and connector (see ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT INSPECTION PROCEDURE ).

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  7. INSPECT ENGINE ROOM RELAY BLOCK (STARTER RELAY VOLTAGE) 
    1. Remove the STARTER relay from the engine room relay block.
    2. Measure the voltage of the engine room relay block and body ground.

      Standard voltage 

      ENGINE ROOM RELAY BLOCK (STARTER RELAY VOLTAGE)

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      Engine room relay block (Starter relay terminal 5) - Body ground 9 to 14 V
      Fig 4: Inspecting Engine Room Relay Block (Starter Relay Voltage)

    3. Reinstall the STARTER relay.

    NG: CHECK AND REPAIR HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STARTER RELAY - BATTERY) 

    OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  8. INSPECT STARTER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Inspect starter assembly (see INSPECTION ).

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE STARTER ASSEMBLY 

    OK: CHECK AND REPAIR HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STARTER RELAY - STARTER, STARTER - BATTERY) 

  9. INSPECT IGNITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY 
    1. Disconnect the I18 ignition switch connector.
    2. Measure the resistance of the connector terminals shown in IGNITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY  .

      Standard resistance 

      IGNITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY

      Switch Position Tester Connection Specified Condition
      START 7 - 8 Below 1 Ω
