ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS)
Step
15 CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF INHIBITOR
SWITCH.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from inhibitor
switch.
3) Connect the starter relay and ECM.
4) Measure the input voltage between inhibitor
switch connector and engine ground after turn-
ing the ignition switch to START position.

(T7) No. 6 (+) — Engine ground (–):
16 CHECK INHIBITOR SWITCH.
1) Place the select lever in "P" range or "N"
range.
2) Measure the resistance between inhibitor
switch terminals.

No. 6 — No. 9:
17 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN INHIBITOR
SWITCH AND STARTER MOTOR.
Measure the resistance of harness between the
inhibitor switch connector and starter motor.

Diagnostics for Engine Starting Failure
Is the voltage 10 V or more?
Is the resistance less than 1 ? Go to step 17.
Is the resistance less than 1 ? Check the engine
