Diagnostic Test

  1. ACTIVE DTC 
    1. Ignition on, engine not running.
    2. With a scan tool, read DTCs.

      Is the DTC active at this time?

      Yes 

      • Go To step  2

      No 

  2. (T40) STARTER FEED CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND 
    1. Turn the ignition.
    2. Disconnect the Starter Relay.
    3. Disconnect the C10 TIPM harness connector.
    4. Measure the resistance between ground and the (T40) Starter Relay Output circuit in the C10 TIPM harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  3
  3. (T750) STARTER RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND 
    1. Disconnect the Starter Solenoid connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between ground and the (T750) Starter Relay Output circuit in the Starter Relay harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  4. TIPM OPERATION 
    1. Reconnect the C10 TIPM harness connector.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected ground, probe the (T40) Stater Relay Output circuit in the Starter Relay harness connector.
    3. Crank the engine.

      Does the test light illuminate?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  5

      No 

  5. STARTER RELAY 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Install the Starter Relay.
      NOTE: The Stater Solenoid harness connector must still be disconnected at this time.
    3. Crank the engine.
    4. Using a 12-volt test light connected ground, probe the (T750) Stater Relay Output circuit in the Starter Solenoid harness connector.

      Does the test light illuminate?

      Yes 

      No
