Neutral Start Switch Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The neutral start switch goes on when the shift lever is in the N or P shif\
t position. When it goes on the terminal
NSW of the ECU is grounded to body ground via the starter relay and theft deterrent ECU\
, thus the terminal
NSW voltage becomes 0V. When the shift lever is in the D, 2, L or R position, the neutral start\
switch goes off,
so the voltage of ECU terminal NSW becomes battery voltage, the voltage of the ECU internal power source.
If the shift lever is moved from the N range to the D range, this signal\
is used for air±fuel ratio correction and
for idle speed control (estimated control), etc.
When the neutral start switch is off, code º51º is output in the test mode diagnosis. (This is not a\
bnormal.)
DIAGNOSTIC CHARTDIAGNOSTIC CHART
HINT: This diagnosis chart is based on premise that the engine is cranked norm\
ally. If the engine is notcranked, proceed to the matrix chart of problem symptoms on page TR±35.
Check output condition of diag. code 51.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown
on matrix chart (See page TR±35).
Check for open in harness and connector
between neutral start switch and ECU.
Repair or replace harness or connector.
