Checking the starter motor
Check the voltage feed cable between the battery and starter motor #6/25:1(#B1) for short-circuit to ground and open circuit.
Check fuses.
If the starter motor does not work when bridging between terminal #6/25:1(#B1) and terminal #6/25:2(#A1), despite being supplied with voltage from the battery, there is an internal fault.
Replace starter motor.
Remedy as necessary.

Checking the park / neutral position (PNP) function in the gear position sensor (only vehicles with automatic transmission)

Note! For the test to be carried out the battery must be fault free and the starter motor relay and starter motor and corresponding wiring must be checked.

Caution! Avoid touching the pins in the control module and the corresponding connector on the cable harness.There is a risk of static discharge which could damage the control module.Discharge yourself and tools to be used by holding the tool's metal part and touching a body part on the car just before starting to work.




- Ignition on.
- When the gear position sensor is in position P or N the Engine Control Module (ECM) receives signals from the Transmission Control Module (TCM) that start is permitted.
- The gear selector shall be in position P or N.
- Parking brake applied.
Check the voltage between the Engine Control Module (ECM) terminals #B15 and #B1.
The voltage must be 0 V.

Replacing a component

Caution! Avoid touching the pins in the control module and the corresponding connector on the cable harness.There is a risk of static discharge which could damage the control module.Discharge yourself and tools to be used by holding the tool's metal part and touching a body part on the car just before starting to work.

If voltage is approximately 0 V on terminal #B15 on the Engine Control Module (ECM), when the gear-shift position sensor is in position P or N, the circuit for the gear-shift position sensor is working.
The fault may be in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Try replacing Engine Control Module (ECM).
