1. Make sure you have the anti-theft codes for the
radio, and the navigation s y s t e m , then write d o w n
the customer's audio presets.
2. Disconnect the negative cable f r o m the battery first,

3. Remove the starter cable (A), BLK/WHT w i r e (B),
and motor cable (C).
8 x 1.25 m m
4. Check the hold-in coil for continuity between the
S terminal and the armature housing (ground).
There should be continuity.
6. Install in the reverse order of removal.
7. Connect the battery positive cable to the battery
first, and then the negative cable.
8. Enter the anti-theft codes for the radio and the
navigation system, then enter the customer's audio
presets.
9. Do the power w i n d o w control unit reset procedure
(see page 22-200).
10. Set the clock.
11. If the IMA battery level gauge (BAT) displays no
segments, start the engine, and hold it between
3,500 r p m and 4,000 r p m w i t h o u t load (in Park or
neutral) until the BAT displays at least three
segments.
• If there is continuity, go to step 5.
• If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.
5. Check the pull-in coil for continuity between the
S terminal and the M t e r m i n a l . There should be
continuity.
• If there is continuity, the solenoid is OK.
• If there is no continuity, replace the solenoid.
