P0685-AUTO SHUTDOWN RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.



POSSIBLE CAUSES

(K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN
(K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
(K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
LOSS OF POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE POWERS OR GROUNDS
ASD RELAY
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).


1. CHECK FOR OTHER DTCS


1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, check for additional DTCs.


Are other DTCs present?

Yes


No


2. CLEAR CODE AND CHECK IF THE DTC RESETS


1. With the scan tool, erase PCM DTCs.
2. Perform several ignition key cycles, pausing for at least 10 seconds between each cycle.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, read PCM DTCs.


Did this DTC Return?

Yes


No


3. SUBSTITUTE THE ASD RELAY


1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Install a known good relay in place of the ASD Relay.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, erase PCM DTCs.
5. Perform several ignition key cycles, pausing for at least 10.0 seconds between each cycle.
6. Turn the ignition on.
7. With the scan tool, read PCM DTCs.


Did this DTC return?

Yes


No


4. CHECK PCM POWER AND GROUNDS


1. Using the wiring information, check the PCM battery, ignition feed and ground circuits.


Were any problem found with the PCM powers and grounds?

Yes


No


5. CHECK THE (K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE



1. Reconnect the PCM harness connectors.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Remove the ASD Relay.
4. Turn the ignition on.
5. Measure the voltage an the (K51) ASD Relay Control circuit at terminal 85 of the ASD Relay connector.


Is there any voltage present?

Yes


No


6. CHECK THE (K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Remove the ASD Relay.
3. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
4. Measure the resistance an the (K51) ASD Relay Control circuit at terminal 85 of the ASD Relay connector.


Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?

Yes


No


7. CHECK THE (K51) ASD RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE



1. Measure the resistance of the (K51) ASD Relay Control circuit between the PCM C1 harness connector and the ASD Relay connector.


Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

Yes


No
