      Connector & terminal 

      (B14) No. 1 (+) - Engine ground (-):

      NOTE: Place the select lever in "P" range or "N" range.

   Is the voltage 10 V or more?

   Yes: Check the starter motor. Ref. to STARTING/CHARGING SYSTEMS (H4DO) >  STARTER  .

   No: Go to   5  .

5. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN BATTERY AND IGNITION SWITCH CONNECTOR  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Disconnect the connector from ignition switch.
   3. Measure the power supply voltage between ignition switch connector and chassis ground.

      Connector & terminal 

      (B72) No. 4 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      (B72) No. 5 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

   Is the voltage 10 V or more?

   Yes: Go to   6  .

   No: Repair the power supply circuit.

6. CHECK IGNITION SWITCH  .

   Measure the resistance between ignition switch terminals after turning the ignition switch to START position.

   Terminals 

   No. 3 - No. 4:

   No. 5 - No. 7:

   Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

   Yes: Go to   7  .

   No: Replace the ignition switch. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS > Ignition Key Lock >  REPLACEMENT  .

7. CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF STARTER RELAY  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Remove the starter relay.
   3. Connect the connector to ignition switch.
   4. Measure the voltage between starter relay connector and chassis ground after turning the ignition switch to START position.

      Connector & terminal 

      (B225) No. 2 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      (B225) No. 3 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

   Is the voltage 10 V or more?

   Yes: Go to   8  .

   No: Check the following item and repair if necessary.

   • Blown out of fuse
   • Open or short circuit to ground in harness between starter relay and ignition switch connector
8. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND STARTER RELAY CONNECTOR  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
   3. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and starter relay connector.

      Connector & terminal 

      (B134) No. 14 - (B225) No. 5:

   Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

   Yes: Go to   9  .

   No: Repair the open circuit of harness between ECM and starter relay connector.

9. CHECK STARTER RELAY  .
   1. Connect the battery to starter relay terminals No. 3 and No. 5.
   2. Measure the resistance between starter relay terminals.

      Terminals 

      No. 1 - No. 2:

   Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

   Yes: Go to   10  .

   No: Replace the starter relay. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DOTC) >  ELECTRICAL COMPONENT LOCATION   .

10. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN STARTER RELAY AND INHIBITOR SWITCH CONNECTOR  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the connector from inhibitor switch.
    3. Measure the resistance of harness between starter relay connector and inhibitor switch connector.

       Connector & terminal 

       (B225) No. 1 - (T7) No. 6:

    Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

    Yes: Go to   11  .

    No: Repair the harness and connector.

    NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:

    • Open circuit in harness between starter relay connector and inhibitor switch connector
    • Poor contact of coupling connector
11. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN INHIBITOR SWITCH AND STARTER MOTOR  .
