(4) Connect voltmeter to measure between nega-
tive battery terminal post and a good clean ground
on engine block (Fig. 5). Rotate and hold ignition
switch in Start position. Observe voltmeter. If read-
ing is above 0.2 volt, clean and tighten negative bat-
tery cable attachment on engine block. Repeat test. If
reading is still above 0.2 volt, replace faulty negative
battery cable.
(5) Connect positive lead of voltmeter to starter
housing. Connect negative lead of voltmeter to nega-
tive battery terminal post (Fig. 6). Rotate and hold
ignition switch in Start position. Observe voltmeter.
If reading is above 0.2 volt, correct poor starter to
engine block ground contact.
If resistance tests detect no feed circuit problems,
refer to Starter Motor in the Diagnosis and Testing.
CONTROL CIRCUIT TESTING
The starter control circuit components should be
tested in the order in which they are listed, as fol-
lows:
• Starter Relay - Refer to Starter Relay Diag-
nosis and Testing.
• Starter Solenoid - Refer to Starter Motor
Diagnosis and Testing.
• Ignition Switch - Refer to Ignition Switch
and Key Lock Cylinder
• Park/Neutral Position Switch - If equipped
with automatic transmission, refer to Park/Neutral
Position Switch in 21, Transmission.
• Wire harnesses and connections - Refer to 8,
Wiring Diagrams.

STARTER MOTOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - STARTER MOTOR
Correct starter motor operation can be confirmed
by performing the following free running bench test.
This test can only be performed with starter motor
removed from vehicle. Refer to Starter Specifications
for specifications.
(1) Remove starter motor from vehicle. Refer to
Starter Motor Removal and Installation.
(2) Mount starter motor securely in a soft-jawed
bench vise. The vise jaws should be clamped on the
mounting flange of starter motor. Never clamp on
starter motor by field frame.
(3) Connect a suitable volt-ampere tester and a
12-volt battery to starter motor in series, and set
ammeter to 100 ampere scale. See instructions pro-
vided by manufacturer of volt-ampere tester being
used.
(4) Install jumper wire from solenoid terminal to
solenoid battery terminal. The starter motor should
operate. If starter motor fails to operate, replace
faulty starter motor assembly.
(5) Adjust carbon pile load of tester to obtain free
running test voltage. Refer to Specifications for
starter motor free running test voltage specifications.
(6) Note reading on ammeter and compare reading
to free running test maximum amperage draw. Refer
to Specifications for starter motor free running test
maximum amperage draw specifications.
(7) If ammeter reading exceeds maximum amper-
age draw specification, replace faulty starter motor
assembly.
STARTER SOLENOID
This test can only be performed with starter motor
removed from vehicle.
(1) Remove starter motor from vehicle. Refer to
Starter Motor Removal and Installation.
(2) Disconnect wire from solenoid field coil termi-
nal.
(3) Check for continuity between solenoid terminal
and solenoid field coil terminal with a continuity

tester (Fig. 7). There should be continuity. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, replace faulty starter motor
assembly.
(4) Check for continuity between solenoid terminal
and solenoid case (Fig. 8). There should be continuity.
If not OK, replace faulty starter motor assembly.
REMOVAL
The starter motor and solenoid assembly is located
at the left/rear side of engine (Fig. 9).
(1) Disconnect and isolate negative battery cable.
(2) Working from under vehicle hood, remove bolt
retaining wiring trough (Fig. 11) to transmission bell-
housing.
(3) Working from under vehicle hood, cut neces-
sary nylon; wiring trough tie-wraps near starter
motor. Temporarily position wiring harness trough
for access to starter.
(4) Working from under vehicle hood, remove 2
starter solenoid wiring harness nuts (Fig. 10).
(5) Remove solenoid wire connector from solenoid
stud, and battery cable from solenoid stud.
(6) Raise and support vehicle.
(7) Remove 2 starter mounting bolts (E14Torx)
(Fig. 10).
(8) Remove starter from transmission bellhous-
ing.

STARTER MOTOR RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The starter relay is an electromechanical device
that switches battery current to the pull-in coil of the
starter solenoid when ignition switch is turned to
Start position. The starter relay is located in the
Fuse/Relay Block. The Fuse/Relay Block is located
under, and to the left side of the drivers seat. See
Fuse/Relay Block cover for relay identification and
location.
The starter relay is an International Standards
Organization (ISO) relay. Relays conforming to ISO
specifications have common physical dimensions, cur-
rent capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal func-
tions.
The starter relay cannot be repaired or adjusted
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
REMOVAL
The starter relay is located in the Fuse/Relay
Block. The Fuse/Relay Block is located under, and to
the left side of the drivers seat. See Fuse/Relay Block
cover for relay identification and location, or refer to
(Fig. 12).
(1) Remove Fuse/Relay Block cover by pushing
down on two tabs located at top of cover (Fig. 13).
(2) Remove relay from Fuse/Relay Block.
(3) Check condition of relay terminals and Fuse/
Relay Block connector terminals for damage or corro-
sion. Repair if necessary before installing relay.
(4) Check for pin height (pin height should be the
same for all terminals within the Fuse/Relay Block
connector). Repair if necessary before installing
relay.
