DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE 2
Check “S” Connector Circuit
1. CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR STARTER MOTOR “S” CONNECTOR
1. Remove fuel pump fuse.
2. Crank or start the engine (where possible) until the fuel pressure is released.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF.
4. Disconnect starter motor S connector.
5. Check voltage between starter motor harness connector E312
*1
or F33*2 terminal 1 (B) and ground using a digital circuit tester.
NOTE:
*1: VK45DE, *2: VQ35DE
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check the following.
40A fusible link (letter F , located in fuse and fusible
link box)
Ignition switch
Starter relay [within the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room)].
Harness for open or short
2. CHECK “S” TERMINAL CONNECTION (VOLTAGE DROP TEST)
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Connect starter motor S connector.
3. Check voltage between starter motor harness connector E312
*1
or F33*2 terminal 1 (B) and battery positive terminal using a dig-
ital circuit tester.
NOTE:
*1: VK45DE, *2: VQ35DE
OK or NG
OK >> Starter motor “S” connector circuit is OK. Further inspec-
tion necessary. Refer to SC-14, "
WORK FLOW" .
NG >> Check harness between the battery and the starter motor “S” connector for poor continuity.
