DTC P0615-19: Starter Relay Circuit Current Above Threshold [12/2021 - 10/2023]: Procedure
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - BBC NO. 1 FUSE AND BBC NO. 2 FUSE)
- Disconnect the engine stop and start ECU connector.
- Remove the BBC NO. 1 fuse and BBC NO. 2 fuse from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A33-1 (BIN2) - BBC NO. 2 fuse terminal 2 Always Below 1 Ω A33-3 (BIN1) - BBC NO. 1 fuse terminal 2 Always Below 1 Ω A33-1 (BIN2) or BBC NO. 2 fuse terminal 2 - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher A33-3 (BIN1) or BBC NO. 1 fuse terminal 2 - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - BBC NO. 1 FUSE OR BBC NO. 2 FUSE)
Result:
OK
See step 2
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - ST NO. 1 RELAY)
- Disconnect the engine stop and start ECU connectors.
- Remove the ST NO. 1 relay from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
- Disconnect the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector. (w/ Smart Key System)
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- Disconnect the ECM connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A34-21 (STA) - 2 (ST NO. 1 relay) Always Below 1 Ω A34-21 (STA) or 2 (ST NO. 1 relay) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher A33-1 (BIN2) - A34-21 (STA) Always 10 kΩ or higher A33-3 (BIN1) - A34-21 (STA) Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - ST NO. 1 RELAY)
Result:
OK
See step 3
- CHECK ENGINE STOP AND START ECU
*a Component without harness connected
(Engine Stop and Start ECU)- - - Disconnect the engine stop and start ECU connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A34-21 (STA) - A34-6 (DGND) Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPLACE ENGINE STOP AND START ECU. Refer to REMOVAL [08/2020 - 10/2022] , or refer to REMOVAL [10/2022 - 10/2023]
Result:
OK
See step 4
- INSPECT RELAY (ST NO. 1 RELAY)
- Inspect the ST NO. 1 relay.
Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 1
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
