Starter Circuit Troubleshooting
NOTE:. Airtemperature must be between 59'and 100'F (15'
and 38'C) during this procedure.
. After this test, or any subsequent repair, reset the
engine controle module (ECM) to clear any diagnostlc
trouble codes (DTCS) {see page 11-4).. The battery must be in good condition and fully
charged.. lf you disconnect the baftery, do the ECM idle learn
procedure (see page 11-139).
Recommended Procedure:. Use a starter system tester.. Connect and operate the equipment in accordance
with the manuf acturer's instructions.
Alternate Procedure
1. Hook up the following equipment:. Ammeter, 0 400 A. Voltmeter, 0 20 V (accurate within 0.1 volt). Tachometer,0 1200 rpm
2.Remove the No. 17 (15A) fuse from the under-dash
fuse/relay box.
With the clutch pedal pressed, turn the ignition
switch to start (lll).
Did the starter crank the engine normally?
YES-The starting system is OK.I
NO-Go to step 4.
3.

4-5
4. Check the battery condition. Check electrical
connections at the battery, the negative baftery
cable to body, the engine ground cables and the
starter for looseness and corrosion. Then try
starting the engine again.
Did the statter crank the engine?
YES Repairing the loose connection fixed the
problem. The starting system is now OK.!
NO lf starterwill notcranktheengine atall, goto
step 5. lf it cranks the engine erratically or too
slowly, go to step 7. lf it won't disengage from the
flywheel ring gear when you release the key, check
for the following until you find the cause.
. Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction. Dirty drive gear or damaged overrunning clutch
5. Make sure the transmission is in neutral, then
disconnect the starter subharness 1P connector (A)
from the engine wire harness 'lP connector (B).
Connect a jumper wire from the battery positive
terminal to the starter subharness 'l P connector.
Did the starter crank the engine?
YES-Go to step 6.
NO Check the BLK,ANHT wire between the starter
subharness 1P connector and the starter. lf wire is
OK, remove the starter, and repair or replace as
necessary.

6. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (in Neutral) until the radiator fan comes on,
then let it idle.
7. Raise the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it
there.
8. Turn the headlights (high beam) on, and measure
voltage at the under-hood fuse/relay box terminal.
ls the voltage between 13.9 and 15.1 v?
YES-Go to step 9.
NO Repair or replace the alternator components
(see page 4-30).1
9. Read the amperage at '13.5 V.
NOTE: Adjust the voltage by turning the blower
motor, rear window defogger, brake lights. etc. ON.
ls the amperage 604 ot morc?
YES-Alternator/regulator operation is OK. I
NO Repair or replace the alternator components(see page 4-30).1

Alternator Control System Test
NOTE: After troubleshooting, perform the engine
control module (ECM) idle learn procedure (see page
11-139).
1 . Check for proper operation of the electrical load
detector (ELD) by checking the malfunction
indicator lamp (MlL) (see page 1 l-3). lf a DTC is
present, diagnose and repair the cause before
continuing with this test.
2. Disconnect the engine wire harness 6P connector
from the starter sub harness 6P connector.
3. Start the engine, and turn the headlights (high
beam) ON,
4. Measure voltage between the engine wire harness
6P connector terminal No. 2 and the positive
terminal of lhe battery.

YES Go to step 8.
NO-Go to step 5.

45. Disconnect the compressor clutch connector (A),
then remove the Ay'C compressor (B)without
disconnecting the A'./C hoses.
Check that the engine/transmission is completely
free of vacuum hoses, fuel and coolant hoses, and
electrical wiring.
Slowly lower the engine about 150 mm (6 in.).
Check once again that all hoses and wires are
disconnected trom the engine/transmission.
Lower the engine all the way. Remove the chain
hoist from the engine.
Remove the engine from under the vehicle.
