DTC P0617 Starter Relay Circuit High


DESCRIPTION

While the engine is being cranked, the positive battery voltage is applied to terminal STA of the TCM.
If the TCM detects the Starter Control (STA) signal while the vehicle is being driven, it determines that there is a malfunction in the STA circuit. The TCM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
This monitor runs when the vehicle is driven at 20 km/h (12.4 mph) for over 20 seconds.

DTC No.

P0617
When conditions (a), (b) and (c) are met, positive (+B) battery voltage of 10.5 V or more is applied to TCM for 20 seconds
(1 trip detection logic):
(a) Vehicle speed more than 20 km/h (12.4 mph)
(b) Engine speed more than 1,000 rpm
(c) STA signal ON

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
  1. The following troubleshooting flowchart is based on the premise that the engine is cranked normally. If the engine does not crank, proceed to the problem symptoms table (CAMRY_ACV40 RM000000PDG0HDX.html).
  2. Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The TCM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction (CAMRY_ACV40 RM000000PDS01FX.html).
1.READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and turn the tester on.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Data List.

  1. Check the value displayed on the tester when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and the engine is started.

    OK:

    Engine Switch Condition
    		ON (IG)
    		ENGINE START
    Starter Signal
    		OFF
    		ON

  1. Inspect the Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch.

    1. Disconnect the C1 switch connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance:
      Gear Selector Lever Position
      		Tester Connection
      		Specified Condition
      P
      		4 - 9
      		Below 1 Ω
      N
      		4 - 9
      		Below 1 Ω

    3. Reconnect the PNP switch connector.

  1. Disconnect the E23 ignition switch connector.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard resistance:
    Switch Condition
    		Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
