Inspection Procedure

HINT:

  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL) 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
    3. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / STARTER SIG.
    4. Check the value displayed on the tester when the ignition switch is turned to the ON and START positions.

    OK 

    DATA LIST

    Ignition Switch Position STARTER SIG
    ON OFF
    START ON

    OK: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS 

    NG: GO to Next Step 

  2. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY 
    1. Disconnect the B26 PNP switch connector.
    2. Measure the resistance when the transmission gear selector lever is moved to each position.

      Standard resistance 

      TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION

      Gear Selector Lever Position Tester Connection Specified Condition
      P 2 (RB) - 6 (PL), 4 (B) - 5 Below 1 Ω
      R 1 (RL) - 2 (RB) Below 1 Ω
      N 2 (RB) - 9 (NL), 4 (B) - 5 (L) Below 1 Ω
      D 2 (RB) - 7 (DL) Below 1 Ω
      2 2 (RB) - 3 (2L) Below 1 Ω
      L 2 (RB) - 8 (LL) Below 1 Ω
    3. Reconnect the PNP switch connector.

    OK: GO to step  5

    3. Reconnect the ignition switch connector.

    OK: GO to step  7

    NG: GO to Next Step 

  6. REPLACE IGNITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY 
  7. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL) 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
    3. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / STARTER SIG.
    4. Check the value displayed on the tester when the ignition switch is turned to the ON and START positions.

    OK

    ON OFF
    START ON

    OK: SYSTEM OK 

    NG: GO to Next Step 

  8. REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PNP SWITCH - STA TERMINAL OF ECM) 
  9. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    3. Turn the tester ON.
    4. Clear DTCs (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
    5. Drive the vehicle at more than 20 km/h (12.43 mph) for over 20 seconds.
    6. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
    7. Read DTCs.
