SEDONA (VQ) INTERMITTENT NO-CRANK CONDITION
(Electrical 012)
Description
Some 2006 - 2007 Sedona (VQ) vehicles produced before April 18, 2007 may exhibit a customer concern in which the engine will not crank (starter will not engage) when attempting to start the engine. In some cases, this condition be caused by higher than normal resistance across the Burglar Alarm Relay located inside the In Panel Module (IPM). This relay is not a serviceable item, and if defective requires the replacement of the IPM. Other concerns such as poor pin connections and other faulty components in the starters circuit may also cause higher than normal circuit resistance and should be considered before condemning and replacing the IPM. The following test procedure has been developed to assist you in determining whether the problem is the Burglar Alarm Relay in the IPM, or is related to some other area of the starters circuit. It's recommended that this TSB be read in it's entirety before attempting to perform this test procedure for the first time.
