Diagnostic Test

1. BATTERY CABLES

NOTE: The battery must be fully charged before diagnosing a no crank condition.


Turn the ignition off.
Inspect the battery cables for corrosion, looseness or other problems.

Is there evidence of problems?

Yes


No

2. BATTERY CABLE HIGH RESISTANCE

Using the Service Information, check the battery cables for high resistance.

Did either battery cable have a voltage drop greater than 0.2 volts?

Yes


No

3. SKREEM CODES PRESENT

Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, read the SKREEM DTCs.

Does the scan tool display any SKREEM DTCs?

Yes


No

4. TIPM CAN BUS CODES PRESENT

With the scan tool, read the TIPM DTCs.

NOTE: If there are CAN BUS related problems the TIPM will not supply power to the Starter Relay coil.



Does the scan tool display any CAN Bus related DTCs in the TIPM?

Yes


No

5. CHECKING STARTER OPERATION



Turn the ignition off.
Remove the Starter Relay from the TIPM.

WARNING: THE TRANSMISSION MUST BE IN NEUTRAL AND THE PARK BRAKE MUST BE SET FOR THIS TEST.


WARNING: THE ENGINE MAY CRANK IN THE NEXT STEP. WHEN THE ENGINE IS CRANKING, DO NOT STAND IN A DIRECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.


Momentarily jumper Starter Relay connector cavities 30 and 87 in the TIPM connector.

Did the engine crank?

Yes


No

6. STARTER RELAY

Install a known good relay in place of the Starter Relay.
Attempt to start the engine.

Does the engine crank?

Yes


No

7. CHECK POWER AND GROUNDS

Refer to the symptom list and perform the Checking the ECM Power and Ground test.

Were any problem found with the ECM powers and grounds?

Yes


No

8. STARTER COIL DRIVE CIRCUIT (INTERNAL TIPM)



Turn the ignition off.
Remove the Starter Relay from the TIPM.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the Starter Coil Driver circuit in the Starter Relay connector while turning the ignition switch to the START position.

Does the test light illuminate with the ignition switch in the START position?

Yes


No

9. (T752) STARTER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the ECM harness connectors.
Remove the ASD Relay from the TIPM.
Using a jumper wire, connect ASD Relay connector cavities 30 and 87 in the TIPM.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (T752) Starter Relay Control circuit.

Is the voltage above 1.0 volt?

Yes


No

10. (T752) STARTER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN



Turn the ignition off.
Remove the jumper wire and install the ASD Relay.
Measure the resistance of the (T752) Starter Relay Control circuit between the ECM harness connector and the Starter Relay connector in the TIPM.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

11. FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT OPEN



Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the Fused B(+)circuit in the Starter Relay connector in the TIPM.

Is the test light on?

Yes


No

12. (T750) STARTER RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN



Disconnect the (T750) Starter Relay Output wire from the Starter Solenoid.
Connect the (T750) Starter Relay Output wire (at the Starter) to ground.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (T750) Starter Relay Output circuit at the Starter Relay connector in the TIPM.

Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No

13. MECHANICAL PROBLEM

Turn the ignition off.
Attempt to manually rotate the crankshaft 360 degrees .

Is the crankshaft able to rotate 360 degrees ?

Yes


No
