1. Ignition 1 Relay will not Energize 2. Ignition 1 Relay is Always Energized | ||||
Circuit/System Description
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) controls the ignition 1 relay through the relay coil control circuit by applying voltage to the circuit. The ignition 1 relay is energized when the ignition switch is in ON or START, or when a remote start is requested.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ignition 1 relay control circuit is shorted to ground.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The ignition 1 relay control will be disabled.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The current DTC clears when the fault is no longer present.

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the ignition 1 relay.
- Test for less than 1 ohm between the ground circuit terminal 85 and ground.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 86 and ground.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and OFF. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the ignition 1 relay.
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
