DTC |
P0617 |
Starter Relay Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
While the engine is being cranked, the positive battery voltage is applied to terminal STA of the ECM. If the ECM detects the Starter Control (STA) signal while the vehicle is being driven, it determines that there is a malfunction in the STA circuit. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
This monitor runs when the vehicle is driven at 20 km/h (12.4 mph) for over 20 seconds.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
-
The following troubleshooting flowchart is based on the premise that the engine is cranked normally.
If the engine will not crank, proceed to the Problem Symptoms Table
. - Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE

1. |
READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STARTER SIGNAL) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data / Starter Signal.
(e) Check the value displayed on the Techstream when the ignition switch is turned to the ON and START positions.
OK:

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STARTER SIGNAL) |
(a) Disconnect the Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch connector.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data / Starter Signal.
