DTC P1621: Immobilizer Communication Line Error

Immobilizer Control System Wiring Circuit Diagram

Detecting Condition and Trouble Area






Troubleshooting


1. Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) confirmation
Clear DTC(s) referring to DTC Clearance DTC Clearance.
Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Check if any DTC is detected referring to DTC Check DTC Check.
Is DTC P1621 still detected?
YES
Go to Step 2.
NO
The troubleshooting is completed.
2. Fuse check
Check if any related fuse is blown.
Is any fuse blown?
YES
Replace blown fuse(s) with new one(s).
NO
Go to Step 3.
3. ICM poor connection check
Disconnect ICM connector "G24" referring to Service and Repair Immobilizer Control Module (ICM) Removal and Installation.
Check if wire connections are normal at ICM connector "G24".
Is each wire connection normal?
YES
Go to Step 4.
NO
Repair poor connection(s).
4. ECM poor connection check
Disconnect ECM connector "E23" referring to Service and Repair ECM (Engine Control Module) Removal and Installation.
Check for proper following terminal connections to ECM connector.
"E23-13" and "E23-28"
Is each wire connection normal?
YES
Go to Step 5.
NO
Repair poor connection(s).
5. Check for open in power supply wire circuit
Connect ICM connector "G24" referring to Service and Repair Immobilizer Control Module (ICM) Removal and Installation.
With the ignition switch at ON position, check voltage between "G24-1" wire terminal at ICM and body ground.
Is voltage about 12 V?
YES
Go to Step 6.
NO
Repair open in power supply wire circuit.
6. Check for open in ground wire circuit
With the ignition switch at ON position, check voltage between "G24-2" wire terminal at ICM and body ground.
Is voltage 0 V?
YES
Go to Step 7.
NO
Repair open in ground wire circuit.
7. Check for short to ground circuit in communication wire circuit
With ICM connector "G24" and ECM connector "E23" disconnected, check resistance between "G24-4" / "G24-3" wire terminal at ICM connector and body ground.
Is resistance infinite?
YES
Go to Step 8.
NO
Repair short to ground wire circuit in communication wire circuit.
8. Check for short to power circuit in communication wire circuit
With ICM connector "G24" and ECM connector "E23" disconnected, turn the ignition switch to ON position.
Check voltage between "G24-4" / "G24-3" wire terminal at ICM connector and body ground.
Is voltage 0 V?
YES
Go to Step 9.
NO
Repair short to power supply wire circuit in communication wire circuit.
9. Check for short of communication wire circuit
With ICM connector "G24" and ECM connector "E23" disconnected, check resistance between "G24-3" wire terminal and "G24-4" wire terminal at ICM connector.
Is resistance infinite?
YES
Go to Step 10.
NO
Repair short of communication wire circuits.
10. Check for open in communication wire circuit
Disconnect ICM connector "G24" referring to Service and Repair Immobilizer Control Module (ICM) Removal and Installation.
Disconnect ECM connector "E23" referring to Service and Repair ECM (Engine Control Module) Removal and Installation.
Check resistance between following terminal at ICM connector and ECM connector with ignition switch ON.
"G24-4" and "E23-13" ("PNK/BLU") wire terminal /
"G24-3" and "E23-28" ("GRY/BLU") wire terminal
Is resistance infinite?
YES
Repair open in communication wire circuit.
NO
Go to Step 11.
11. ICM check
Check ICM referring to Testing and Inspection Inspection of Immobilizer Control Module (ICM) and Its Circuit.
Is ICM normal?
YES
Replace ECM with new one referring to Service and Repair ECM (Engine Control Module) Removal and Installation
, and then perform Procedure after ECM Replacement Procedure after ECM Replacement.
NO
Replace ICM with new one referring to Service and Repair Immobilizer Control Module (ICM) Removal and Installation.
