Diagnostic Procedure 2, Check "S" Terminal Circuit
- Remove the fuel pump fuse. See COMPONENT LOCATIONS . Crank or start the engine (if possible) until the fuel pressure is released.
- Turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect starter motor connector F53 (QG18DE), F32 (QR25DE) terminal "S" (Black/Yellow wire) connector. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Check voltage between starter motor connector F53 (QG18DE), F32 (QR25DE) terminal "S" (Black/Yellow wire) and ground using a digital circuit tester. With ignition switch "ON", battery voltage should exist. If voltage is as specified, go to next step. If voltage is as not specified, check:
- 40-amp fusible link (letter "C", located in fuse and fusible link box).
- Clutch interlock relay.
- Park/neutral position relay.
- Harness for open or short.
- Connect starter motor connector F53 (QG18DE), F32 (QR25DE) terminal "S" (Black/Yellow wire) connector. Check voltage between starter motor connector F53 (QG18DE), F32 (QR25DE) terminal "S" (Black/Yellow wire) and battery positive terminal using a digital tester. With ignition switch in "START" position, voltage should be less than 0.2 volt. Starter motor "S" terminal circuit is okay. Further inspection is necessary. Refer to WORK FLOW . If voltage is as not specified, check harness between the battery and the starter motor "S" terminal for poor continuity.
