Diagnostic help

Fault diagnosis indicates fault with just the starter relay with corresponding lead.

Check battery cable connections, to the battery and to the chassis, are tightened and have good contact without oxide or corrosion.

Most functions that can prevent starter motor cranking are monitored by self-diagnostics and therefore generate DTCs if they are faulty.

Fault diagnosis is only used for faults that are not monitored by self-diagnostics.
