11		No	Go to the next step.
12	INSPECT STARTER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND OR OPEN CIRCUIT Starter relay is removed. Verify that the starter interlock switch connector is disconnected. (MTX) Measure the voltage at the starter relay terminal A (wiring harness-side) while cranking the engine. Is the voltage B+ ?	Yes	Go to the next step.
12		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground or open circuit. Repeat Step 7.
13	INSPECT START STOP UNIT CONNECTOR CONDITION Switch the ignition to off. Disconnect the start stop unit connector. Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then repeat Step 7.
13		No	Go to the next step.
14	INSPECT STARTER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND Starter relay is removed. Verify that the starter interlock switch and start stop unit connectors are disconnected. Inspect for continuity between starter relay terminal E (wiring harness-side) and body ground. Is there continuity?	Yes	If the short to ground circuit could be detected in the wiring harness: Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground. If the short to ground circuit could not be detected in the wiring harness: Replace the PCM (short to ground in the PCM internal circuit). (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ). Repeat Step 7.
14		No	Go to the next step.
15	INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION Disconnect the PCM connector. Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then repeat Step 7.
15		No	Go to the next step.
16	INSPECT STARTER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Starter relay is removed. Verify that the starter interlock switch, start stop unit and PCM connectors are disconnected. Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side): Starter relay terminal E-PCM terminal 2AZ Starter interlock switch terminal A-PCM terminal 2BD (MTX) Starter relay terminal E-Start stop unit terminal 1D Is there continuity?	Yes	Inspect the start stop unit. (See START STOP UNIT INSPECTION ). If there is any malfunction: Replace the start stop unit, then repeat Step 7. (See START STOP UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ). If there is no malfunction: Go to the next step.
16		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then repeat Step 7.
17	INSPECT WIRING HARNESS OF STARTER POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT Inspect the following circuit: Between battery positive terminal and starter terminal 1A Between battery positive terminal and starter relay terminal D Between starter relay terminal C and starter terminal 2A Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the suspected wiring harness.
17		No	Go to the next step.
18	INSPECT STARTING SYSTEM Inspect the starting system. (See STARTER INSPECTION ). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
18		No	Go to the next step.

Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
19		No	Go to the next step.
20	DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS BASE ENGINE OR OTHER Inspect for a seized/hydro locked engine or flywheel (MTX) or drive plate (ATX). Is the engine seized or hydro locked?	Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
20		No	Go to the next step.
21	VERIFY PRESENT MALFUNCTION DTC Perform the KOEO self test. (See KOEO/KOER SELF TEST [SKYACTIV-G 2.0] ). Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [SKYACTIV-G 2.0] ).
21		No	Go to the next step.
22	Verify the test results. If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. (See SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC INDEX ). If the malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Bulletins and/or On-line Repair Information and perform repair or diagnosis. If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting is completed. If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, reprogram the PCM if a later calibration is available. Retest.
