TROUBLESHOOTING DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step	Inspection	Results	Action
1	PURPOSE: VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION OR SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY Verify related Service Bulletins, on-line repair information, or Service Information availability. Is any related Information available?	Yes	Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available information. If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
1		No	Go to the next step.
2	PURPOSE: VERIFY IF POOR CONNECTION OF EACH PART AFFECTS DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS Switch the ignition off. Inspect the connection condition (part installation condition, connector connection condition) for the following parts: Battery Generator PCM Is the connection condition (part installation condition, connector connection condition) for each part normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
2		No	Connect each part or the connector correctly, then go to Step 9.
3	PURPOSE: INSPECT BATTERY CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION Inspect the applicable connector and terminal. (See CONNECTOR INSPECTION .) Are the connector and terminal normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
3		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to Step 9.
4	PURPOSE: INSPECT GENERATOR CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION Inspect the applicable connector and terminal. (See CONNECTOR INSPECTION .) Are the connector and terminal normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
4		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to Step 9.
5	PURPOSE: INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION Inspect the applicable connector and terminal. (See CONNECTOR INSPECTION .) Are the connector and terminal normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
5		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to Step 9.
6	PURPOSE: INSPECT GENERATOR CHARGE/DISCHARGE CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY Inspect the applicable circuit for a short to power supply. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .) Is the circuit normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
6		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to Step 9.
7	PURPOSE: INSPECT GENERATOR CHARGE/DISCHARGE CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND AND OPEN CIRCUIT Inspect the power supply circuit for an open circuit and short to ground. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .) Is the circuit normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
7		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to Step 9.
8	PURPOSE: INSPECT GENERATOR FOR MALFUNCTION Inspect the applicable part. (See GENERATOR INSPECTION (VIN M) .) (See GENERATOR INSPECTION (VIN 7, L) .) Is the part normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
8		No	Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, then go to the next step. (See GENERATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (VIN M) .) (See GENERATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (VIN 7, L) .)
9	PURPOSE: VERIFY CONDITIONS OF BATTERY Inspect the battery. (See BATTERY INSPECTION [(US)] .)	-	Follow the inspection instructions. Go to repair completion verification.
Repair completion verification 1	PURPOSE: VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure. Clear the DTC recorded in the memory. (See CLEARING DTC .) Replicate the vehicle conditions at the time the DTC was detected using the following procedure. Implement the repeatability verification procedure. (See REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION PROCEDURE .) Perform the DTC inspection for the PCM. (See DTC INSPECTION .) Is the same Pending DTC present?	Yes	Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error. (See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW [(US)] .) If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1. If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM, then go to the next step. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (VIN M) .) (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (VIN 7, L) .)
Repair completion verification 1		No	Go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 2	PURPOSE: VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED Perform the DTC inspection. (See DTC INSPECTION .) Are any other DTCs displayed?	Yes	Repair the malfunctioning location according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
Repair completion verification 2		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
