Component part

Description

TCM

TCM supplies power to the starter relay and starter control relay 
inside IPDM E/R when the selector lever is shifted to the P or N 
position.

Clutch interlock switch

The switch turns ON and electric power is supplied to the starter 
relay and starter control relay inside IPDM E/R when the clutch 
pedal is depressed.

BCM

BCM controls the starter relay inside IPDM E/R.

IPDM E/R

CPU inside IPDM E/R controls the starter control relay.

Starter motor

The starter motor plunger closes and the motor is supplied with 
battery power, which in turn cranks the engine, when the “S” ter-
minal is supplied with electric power.

B TERMINAL CIRCUIT

Description

INFOID:0000000000956390

The “B” terminal is constantly supplied with battery power.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000000956391

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.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> 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 battery positive terminal and starter motor “B” terminal.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 3.

NO

>> Check harness between the battery and the starter motor for poor continuity.

3.

CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT 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 case and battery negative terminal.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> “B” terminal circuit is OK. Further inspection necessary. Refer to 

STR-2, "Work Flow"

.

NO

>> Check the starter motor case and ground for poor continuity.

S CONNECTOR CIRCUIT

S CONNECTOR CIRCUIT

Description

INFOID:0000000000956392

The starter motor magnetic switch is supplied with power when the ignition switch is turned to the START posi-
tion while the selector lever is in the P or N position for A/T models or the clutch pedal is depressed for M/T
models.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000000956393

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.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> “S” connector circuit is OK. Further inspection necessary. Refer to 

STR-2, "Work Flow"

.

NO

>> GO TO 2.

2.

CHECK CONNECTOR

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF.

2.

Check the following terminals and connectors for damage, bend and loose connection.

-

Harness connector F1

-

Harness connector E3

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 3.

NO

>> Repair the terminal and connector.

3.

CHECK HARNESS CONTINUITY (OPEN CIRCUIT)

1.

Disconnect the following harness connectors.

-

Starter motor connector

-

IPDM E/R connector

2.

Check continuity between starter motor harness connector and IPDM E/R harness connector.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> Further inspection necessary. Refer to 

SEC-5, "Work Flow"

 in SEC section. 

NO

>> Repair the harness.
