DTC P0617 (2.4 L Engine) (2017 2018 2019)

DTC P0617  : Starter Cut Relay Diagnosis Circuit High Voltage

NOTE:  Before you troubleshoot, review the general troubleshooting information .

DTC (PGM-FI)

1. Problem verification

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   -2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

   -3. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

   Signal	Threshold		Current conditions
   	Values	Unit	Values	Unit
   STARTER CUT RELAY	More than 4.67	V

   Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

   YES 

   The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the relay circuit board and the PCM. If the on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the on-board snapshot .

2. Relay circuit board check

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   -2. Remove and test the relay circuit board .

   Is the relay circuit board OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Replace the relay circuit board .

3. Shorted wire check (START DIAG line to power)

   -1. Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

   -2. Disconnect the following connector.

   PCM connector A (51P)

   -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   -4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle ON mode
   	Relay circuit board: removed
   	PCM connector A (51P): disconnected
   Test point 1	PCM connector A (51P) No. 47
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there about 0.1 V or less?

   YES 

   The START DIAG wire is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM .

   NO 

   Repair a short to power in the START DIAG wire between the PCM (A47) and the relay circuit board.
