Troubleshooting

Starter Circuit
The battery must be in good condition and fully charged.
1.
Remove the fuel pump relay(A) from the fuse box.

2.
With the shift lever in N or P (A/T) or clutch pedal pressed (M/T), turn the ignition switch to "START"
If the starter normally cranks the engine, starting system is OK. If the starter will not crank the engine at all, go to next step.
If it won't disengage from the ring gear when you release key, check for the following until you find the cause.
A.
Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction.
B.
Dirty pinion gear or damaged overrunning clutch.
3.
Check the battery condition. Check electrical connections at the battery, battery negative cable connected to the body, engine ground cables, and the starter for looseness and corrosion. Then try starting the engine again.
If the starter cranks normally the engine, repairing the loose connection repaired the problem. The starting system is now OK.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, go to next step.
4.
Disconnect the connector from the S-terminal of solenoid. Connect a jumper wire from the B-terminal of solenoid to the S-terminal of solenoid.
For safety reasons, perform the test under the condition stated in item 2, "With the shift lever in N or P (A/T), or clutch pedal pressed (M/T)".
Pay sufficient attention to safety, by using parking brake, car lock, etc.
If the starter cranks the engine, go to next step.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, remove the starter, and repair or replace as necessary.
5.
Check the following items in the order listed until you find the open circuit.
A.
Check the wire and connectors between the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box and the ignition switch, and between the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box and the starter.
B.
Check the ignition switch. (Refer to BE group - ignition system)
C.
Check the transaxle range switch connector or ignition lock switch connector.
D.
Inspect the starter relay.
Starter Solenoid Test
1.
Disconnect the lead wire from the M-terminal of solenoid switch.
2.
Connect the battery as shown. If the starter pinion pops out, it is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

3.
Disconnect the battery from the M terminal.
If the pinion does not retract, the hold-in coil is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

4.
Disconnect the battery also from the body. If the pinion retracts immediately, it is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

Free Running Test
1.
Place the starter motor in a vise equipped with soft jaws and connect a fully-charged 12-volt battery to starter motor as follows.
2.
Connect a test ammeter (150-ampere scale) and carbon pile rheostats shown is the illustration.
3.
Connect a voltmeter (15-volt scale) across starter motor.

4.
Rotate carbon pile to the off position.
5.
Connect the battery cable from battery's negative post to the starter motor body.
6.
Turn on the switch connected between S-terminal and B-terminal, and adjust by carbon pile until battery voltage shown on the voltmeter reads 11 volts.
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
7.
Confirm that the maximum amperage is within the specifications and that the starter motor turns smoothly and freely.

Max.Current : 60A
Min.Speed : 5,500rpm
