DTC P0615-19: Starter Relay Circuit Current Above Threshold [12/2019 - 10/2022]: Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - BBC NO. 1 FUSE AND BBC NO. 2 FUSE) 
    1. Disconnect the engine stop and start ECU connector.
    2. 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.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A33-1 (BIN2) - 2 (BBC NO. 2 fuse) Always Below 1 Ω
      A33-3 (BIN1) - 2 (BBC NO. 1 fuse) Always Below 1 Ω
      A33-1 (BIN2) or 2 (BBC NO. 2 fuse) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      A33-3 (BIN1) or 2 (BBC NO. 1 fuse) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE STOP AND START ECU - ST RELAY) 
    1. Disconnect the engine stop and start ECU connectors.
    2. Remove the ST relay from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
    3. Disconnect the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
    4. Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
    5. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    6. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A34-21 (STA) - 2 (ST relay) Always Below 1 Ω
      A34-21 (STA) or 2 (ST relay) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

    NG 

    REPLACE ENGINE STOP AND START ECU. Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. INSPECT RELAY (ST RELAY) 

    Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 1

    Result

    Proceed to
    OK
    NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [12/2019 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE RELAY (ST RELAY)
