In case of a starting circuit malfunction, begin by ensuring either the clutch pedal is depressed (for manual transaxle) or the shift lever is placed in PARK or NEUTRAL (for automatic transaxle). Make sure that battery cable clamps are clean and tight as well as inspecting battery cables for any that are damaged. Inspect the condition of the battery after testing it if it fails any tests and replace it. Also, check starter solenoid wiring and connections and ensure that starter mounting bolts are tight. Check engine compartment fuse box for burnt fuses; check ignition switch circuit; check operation of ignition switch circuit to be correct. Additionally, confirm manual transaxle's clutch start switch circuit or automatic transaxle's transaxle range switch circuit. If there is no action from starter when key on START position, verify battery voltage at solenoid "S" terminal to determine whether it receives proper signal from ignition switch. If none, consult wiring diagrams and inspect starter/ignition switch circuit fuse(s). If cranking speed appears slow this may indicate low voltage or excessive current draw; therefore terminals should be cleaned and the battery must meet specifications. If there is voltage but no engagement remove starter motor bench test using appropriate procedure remember crankshaft pulley may require rotating in some cases. On bench apply battery voltage to solenoid S terminal watch pinion drive; does drive come out without rotation-defective motor; does not start up although solenoid clicks-solenoid/starter motor could both be bad; plunger comes out while turning pinion drive-the assembly operates alright.

Raise the front of the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands.

Verify that the battery cable clamps are clean and secure, and check the condition of the battery cables, replacing any faulty ones. Test the battery's condition, and if it fails any tests, replace it with a new battery.

Disconnect the battery cable and the starter wire from their respective terminals on the starter motor solenoid.
