TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

The starting system consists of the following

1. Starter motor
2. Starter motor relay
3. Transmission Range (TR) sensor
4. Battery
5. Ignition switch
6. PCM
7. Start diode

When the starter solenoid is energized, a magnetic field is created in the starter solenoid windings. The iron plunger core is drawn into the starter solenoid coil, and a drive lever and pin connected to the starter drive engages the drive pinion gear to the flexplate ring gear. When the plunger is pulled all the way in, its contact disc closes the circuit between the battery and the motor feed terminals. This sends current to the motor and the drive pinion gear cranks the flexplate to start the engine. When current flows to the starter motor, the starter solenoid pull-in coil is bypassed and the hold-in coil keeps the drive pinion gear engaged with the flexplate.

An overrunning clutch in the starter drive protects the starter motor from excessive speeds during the brief period before the driver releases the ignition switch from the START position as the engine starts.

The starting system uses a TR sensor located on the transaxle. The TR sensor prevents operation of the starter motor unless NEUTRAL or PARK is selected.

The vehicle has One-Touch Integrated Start (OTIS), a computer-assisted cranking system. This feature assists in starting the engine. If the ignition key is turned to the START position and released when the engine begins cranking, the engine may continue cranking for up to 10 seconds or until the vehicle starts.

One-Touch Integrated Start (OTIS)

Once the ignition is turned to the START position and the vehicle is in NEUTRAL or PARK, the PCM reads starter motor request from the ignition switch and gains control of the starter engagement. The customer is no longer in the loop after the initial crank request. The customer may release the key to the RUN/START position. The PCM will disengage the starter motor based on the following events

1. The engine is started (rpm threshold)
2. A set time has been exceeded (calibrated)
3. The ignition key has been turned to the OFF position

Special Tool(s)

SPECIAL TOOLS Flex Probe Kit NUD105-R025D or equivalent Fluke 77-IV Digital Multimeter FLU77-4 or equivalent Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) software with appropriate hardware, or equivalent scan tool

Principles of Operation

Note. This vehicle may be equipped with Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) that disables the engine from starting if an unprogrammed PATS key is used or an invalid PCM ID is received. PATS is controlled by the Instrument Cluster (IC). If there is a PATS concern that caused the engine not to start, the anti-theft light flashes rapidly or glows steadily in the IC . Refer to ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM - PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (PATS) article to diagnose a PATS concern.

The starting system is electronically controlled by the PCM. The PCM receives the following inputs

1. PATS enable status from the IC , (if equipped with PATS )
2. Transaxle in PARK or NEUTRAL from the Transmission Range (TR) sensor
3. Request to start the engine, ignition switch in the START position

When the ignition switch is turned to START, the PCM receives a request to crank and start the engine. If the PCM recognizes the correct input signals and the gear selector is in the NEUTRAL or PARK position, the PCM provides a ground to the starter relay coil. The starter relay contacts close, providing voltage to the starter solenoid, allowing the starter motor to activate.

Inspection and Verification

Note. Make sure the anti-theft system is functioning correctly before carrying out a logical starting system diagnosis. Address anti-theft system concerns before continuing. Refer to ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM - PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (PATS) article.

Pinpoint Test A: The Engine Does Not Crank

Refer to SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article, Starting System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The ignition switch is turned to the START position, the PCM receives a request to start the engine. Voltage is supplied through the start diode to the Transmission Range (TR) sensor and the PCM. With the gear selector in PARK or NEUTRAL, the TR sensor supplies voltage to the starter relay coil. Ground is supplied by the PCM causing the starter relay coil to energize and the starter relay contacts to close. This allows voltage to be supplied from Battery Junction Box (BJB) fuse 11 (30A) to the starter solenoid. The starter solenoid is grounded at the starter. Energizing the starter solenoid closes the solenoid contacts allowing voltage directly from the battery to the starter, engaging the starter drive into the ring gear causing the engine to crank and start. The PCM disengages the starter once an engine rpm threshold is reached, a set crank time is exceeded or the ignition is turned OFF.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following

1. Battery
2. Battery cables
3. Fuse
4. Ignition switch
5. Starter motor
6. Starter relay
7. Start diode
8. Wiring, terminals or connectors
9. PCM
10. TR sensor
11. PATS (if equipped)

Note. Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

Pinpoint Test B: One-Touch Integrated Start (OTIS) Does Not Operate Correctly

Refer to SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article, Starting System for schematic and connector information.

The ignition switch is turned to the START position, the PCM receives a request to start the engine. Voltage is supplied through the start diode to the Transmission Range (TR) sensor and the PCM. With the gear selector in PARK or NEUTRAL, the TR sensor supplies voltage to the starter relay coil. Ground is supplied by the PCM causing the starter relay coil to energize and the starter relay contacts to close. This allows voltage to be supplied from Battery Junction Box (BJB) fuse 11 (30A) to the starter solenoid. The starter solenoid is grounded at the starter. Energizing the starter solenoid closes the solenoid contacts allowing voltage directly from the battery to the starter, engaging the starter drive into the ring gear causing the engine to crank and start. When the key is released the TR sensor no longer supplies voltage to the starter relay. The PCM supplies voltage to the starter relay to continue cranking for one touch start operation. The PCM disengages the starter once an engine rpm threshold is reached, a set crank time is exceeded or the ignition is turned OFF.

No: REPAIR circuit 50-BB15 (GY/OG) for an open between the start diode and PCM. TEST the system for normal operation.

Pinpoint Test C: Unusual Starter Noise

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following

1. Starter motor
2. Starter motor mounting
3. Starter motor engagement
4. Flexplate ring gear

1. C1 CHECK THE STARTER MOUNTING Inspect the starter motor mounting bolts for looseness. Is the starter motor mounted correctly? Yes: GO to C2 . No: INSTALL the starter motor correctly. REFER to «STARTER MOTOR»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/starter/#starting-system) in this service information. TEST the system for normal operation.
2. C2 CHECK FOR ENGINE NOISE Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. Connect a remote starter switch between the starter solenoid "B" and "S" terminals. Engage the starter and verify the noise is due to starter operation. Is the noise due to the starter motor engagement? Yes: GO to C3 . No: REFER to «ENGINE MECHANICAL SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/mechanical/#engine-mechanical-system-general-information) article to continue the diagnosis.
3. C3 CHECK FOR UNUSUAL WEAR Remove the starter motor. Refer to «STARTER MOTOR»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/starter/#starting-system) in this service information. Inspect the flexplate ring gear for damaged or worn teeth. Is the noise due to flexplate ring gear tooth damage? Yes: INSTALL a new flexplate. REFER to «ENGINE MECHANICAL - 2.0L»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/mechanical/#engine-mechanical-20l) article. EXAMINE the starter pinion teeth. If damaged, INSTALL a new starter motor. REFER to «STARTER MOTOR»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/starter/#starting-system) in this service information. TEST the system for normal operation. No: INSTALL a new starter motor. REFER to «STARTER MOTOR»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/starter/#starting-system) in this service information. TEST the system for normal operation.

Component Tests

Always make the Fluke 77-IV Digital Multimeter connections at the component terminal rather than at the wiring end connector. Making a connection at the wiring end connector could result in false readings because the meter will not pick up a high resistance between the wiring connector and the component.

Scheme 18

1. Make sure the battery is fully charged. Carry out the Battery Condition Test. Refer to Diagnosis and Testing in «BATTERY, BATTERY MOUNTING SYSTEM & BATTERY CABLES»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/charging-system/#battery-battery-mounting-system-battery-cables) article article.
2. Connect a remote starter switch between the starter solenoid "S" terminal and the battery positive (+) terminal.
3. Connect the Fluke 77-IV Digital Multimeter positive lead to the battery positive (+) post. Connect the negative lead to the "M" terminal.
4. Engage the remote starter switch. Read and record the voltage. The voltage reading should be 0.5 volt or less.
5. If the voltage reading is 0.5 volt or less, go to the «STARTER MOTOR - GROUND CIRCUIT TEST»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/starter/#starting-system__starter-motor-ground-circuit-test) .
6. If the voltage reading is greater than 0.5 volt, this is an indication of excessive resistance in the connections, the positive battery cable or in the starter solenoid. Move the Fluke 77-IV Digital Multimeter negative lead to the starter solenoid "B" terminal and repeat the test. If the voltage reading at the "B" terminal is lower than 0.5 volt, the concern is either in the connections at the starter solenoid or in the solenoid contacts.
7. Remove the cables from solenoid "B" "S" and "M" terminals. Clean the cables and connections and reinstall the cables to the correct terminals. Repeat Steps 3 through 6. If the voltage drop reading is still greater than 0.5 volt when checked at the "M" terminal and less than 0.5 volt when checked at the "B" terminal, the concern is in the solenoid contacts. Install a new starter motor.
8. If the voltage reading taken at the solenoid "B" terminal is still greater than 0.5 volt after cleaning the cables and the connections at the solenoid, the concern is either in the positive (+) battery cable connection or in the positive battery cable itself. Clean the positive (+) battery cable connection. If this does not solve the problem, install a new positive battery cable. Refer to «BATTERY, BATTERY MOUNTING SYSTEM & BATTERY CABLES»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/charging-system/#battery-battery-mounting-system-battery-cables) article.

Starter Motor - Ground Circuit Test

A slow cranking condition can be caused by resistance in the ground or return portion of the cranking circuit. Check the voltage drop in the ground circuit as follows

Scheme 19

1. Connect a remote starter switch between the starter solenoid "S" terminal and the battery positive (+) terminal.
2. Connect the Fluke 77-IV Digital Multimeter positive lead to the starter motor housing (the connection must be clean and free of rust or grease). Connect the negative lead to the negative (-) battery terminal.
3. Engage the remote starter switch and crank the engine. Read and record the voltage reading. The reading should be 0.5 volt or less.
4. If the voltage is more than 0.5 volt, clean the negative cable connections at the battery, the body ground connections and the starter ground connections. Retest.
5. If the voltage is more than 0.5 volt, install a new cable. Refer to «BATTERY, BATTERY MOUNTING SYSTEM & BATTERY CABLES»(/ford/transit-connect/i-2009-2013/remont/charging-system/#battery-battery-mounting-system-battery-cables) article. If the voltage reading is less than 0.5 volt and the engine still cranks slowly, install a new starter motor.
