Inspection Procedure
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester or OBD II scan tool. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was LEAN or RICH, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
When using intelligent tester
- READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and push the intelligent tester main switch ON.
- On the intelligent tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / STARTER SIG. Read the values.
Result
STARTER SIGNALIgnition Switch Condition ON START STA Signal OFF ON
OK: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
NG: GO TO NEXT STEP
- INSPECT PARK / NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch connector.
- Check the resistance between each terminal shown below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
Standard resistance

NG: REPLACE PARK / NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY (GO TO NEXT STEP 3 AFTER REPLACEMENT)
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and push the intelligent tester main switch ON.
- On the intelligent tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / STARTER SIG. Read the values.
Result
STARTER SIGNAL (1 OF 2)Ignition Switch Condition ON START STA Signal OFF ON
OK: SYSTEM OK
NG: GO TO NEXT STEP
- INSPECT IGNITION OR STARTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY
- Measure the resistance of the ignition switch terminals.
Standard resistance
IGNITION OR STARTER SWITCH ASSEMBLYSwitch Condition Terminal No. Resistance LOCK All Terminals 10 kΩ or higher ACC 1 - 3 Below 1 Ω ON 1 - 2, 1 - 3, 2 - 3, 5 - 6 START 4 - 5, 4 - 6, 5 - 6, 1 - 2
NG: REPLACE IGNITION OR STARTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY (GO TO NEXT STEP 5 AFTER REPLACEMENT)
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- Measure the resistance of the ignition switch terminals.
- READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and push the intelligent tester main switch ON.
- On the intelligent tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / STARTER SIG. Read the values.
Result
STARTER SIGNAL (2 OF 2)Ignition Switch Condition ON START STA Signal OFF ON
OK: SYSTEM OK
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
When not using intelligent tester
- CHECK ECM (STA VOLTAGE)
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Measure the voltage of the ECM connectors.
Standard voltage
ECM (STA VOLTAGE)Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E8-17 (STA) - E6-1 (E1) Ignition switch ON 0 V Engine cranking 6 V or more
OK: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
