STARTING SYSTEMPFP:23300
System Description NKS00009
M/T MODELS
Power is supplied at all times:

through 40A fusible link (letter M , located in the fuse and fusible link block)

to ignition switch terminal 1,

through 10A fuse (No. 71, located in the IPDM E/R)

to CPU of IPDM E/R,

through 15A fuse (No. 78, located in the IPDM E/R)

to CPU of IPDM E/R.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied:

to CPU of IPDM E/R, from battery direct

through 10A fuse (No. 89, located in the IPDM E/R) and IPDM E/R terminal 25

to clutch interlock switch terminal 1.
When the clutch pedal is depressed, power is supplied:

through clutch interlock switch terminal 2

to IPDM E/R terminal 53.
Ground is supplied:

to IPDM E/R terminals 38, 50 and 60

from grounds E17, E43 and B102 (with VDC, navigation system or telephone).

from grounds E17, E43 and F152 (without VDC, navigation system and telephone).
Then starter relay is turn ON.
With the ignition switch in the START position, IPDM E/R is energized and power is supplied:

from ignition switch terminal 5

to IPDM E/R terminal 4 and

through IPDM E/R terminal 3

to starter motor terminal 1.
The starter motor plunger closes and provides a closed circuit between the battery and starter motor. The
starter motor is grounded to the engine block. With power and ground supplied, cranking occurs and the
engine starts.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE 1
Check “B” Terminal Circuit
CAUTION:
Perform diagnosis under the condition that engine cannot start by the following procedure.
1. Remove fuel pump fuse.
2. Crank or start the engine (where possible) until the fuel pressure is released.
1. CHECK “B” TERMINAL CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Make sure that starter motor “B” terminal connection is clean
and tight.
3. Check voltage between starter motor “B” terminal and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check harness between battery and starter motor for open circuit.
2. CHECK BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION STATUS (VOLTAGE DROP TEST)
1. Shift A/T selector lever to “P” or “N” position. (A/T models)
Keep depressing clutch pedal fully. (M/T models)
2. Check voltage between starter motor “B” terminal and battery
positive terminal.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Check harness between the battery and the starter motor for poor continuity.
*1 For battery testing, use Battery Ser-
vice Center (J-48087). For details

3. CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT STATUS (VOLTAGE DROP TEST)
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Shift A/T selector lever to “P” or “N” position. (A/T models)
Keep depressing clutch pedal fully. (M/T models)
3. Check voltage between starter motor case and battery negative
terminal.
OK or NG
OK >> “B” terminal circuit is OK. Further inspection necessary. Refer to SC-13, "Trouble Diagnoses with
Starting/Charging System Tester (Starting)" .
NG >> Check the starter motor case and ground for poor continuity.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE 2
Check “S” Connector Circuit
CAUTION:
Perform diagnosis under the condition that engine cannot start by the following procedure.
1. Remove fuel pump fuse.
2. Crank or start the engine (where possible) until the fuel pressure is released.
1. CHECK “S” CONNECTOR CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect starter motor connector.
3. Shift A/T selector lever to “P” or “N” position. (A/T models)
Keep depressing clutch pedal fully. (M/T models)
4. Check voltage between starter motor harness connector and
ground.
OK or NG
OK >> “S” connector circuit is OK. Further inspection necessary. Refer to SC-13, "Trouble Diagnoses
with Starting/Charging System Tester (Starting)" .
NG >> Check the following.

Disassembly and Assembly NKS0000D
TYPE: S114-928
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Pinion/Clutch Check
1. Inspect pinion teeth.

Replace pinion if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also check condition of ring gear teeth.)
2. Inspect reduction gear teeth.

Replace reduction gear if teeth are worn or damaged. (Also check condition of armature shaft gear
teeth.)
3. Check to see if pinion locks in one direction and rotates smoothly in the opposite direction.

If it locks or rotates in both directions, or unusual resistance is evident, replace.
