Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
When the ignition switch is placed in the START position, a discrete signal is supplied to the body control module (BCM) notifying it that the
ignition is in the START position. The BCM then sends a message to the engine control module (ECM) that crank has been requested. The ECM
then verifies that the clutch pedal is depressed or the transmission is in Park/Neutral. If it is, the ECM then supplies 12 V to the control circuit of the
starter relay. When this occurs, battery voltage is supplied through the switch of the starter relay to the starter solenoid.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The ignition is in the START position.
* The system voltage is between 9.5-18 V.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects improper voltage on the control circuit of the starter relay.
