Page 1 of 12 Overview FAULT CODE 474 Starter Solenoid Lockout Relay Driver Circuit CODE REASON EFFECT Fault Code: 474 PID: S052 SPN: 1321 FMI: 2 LAMP: Yellow SRT: Either low voltage detected when 12 VDC commanded or voltage detected when no voltage is commanded. Either the engine will not have starter lockout protection or the engine will not start. Starter Solenoid Lockout Relay Circuit Circuit Description The Starter Solenoid Lockout Relay Driver Circuit is a solenoid driven by the ECM, which isolates the starter motor relay, electrically, when the engine is running. Component Location Refer to an OEM diagram for the exact location. Shop Talk If pin 8 of the actuator harness is not wired, and Fault Code 474 is active; recalibrate the ECM. If it is still active, replace the ECM.
Page 2 of 12 Note: This fault is only for automotive applications; it does not apply to industrial applications. Check your application before replacing the ECM. Cautions and Warnings WARNING The solenoid harness connector pins receive high voltage when the engine is operating. Do not wear jewelry or damp clothing, and do not touch the solenoid harness connector pins when the engine is operating. This can result in electrical shock that can cause personal injury or death. To avoid pin and harness damage, use the following test lead when taking a measurement: Part Number 3822758 - male Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead. To avoid damaging the new ECM, all other active fault codes must be investigated prior to replacing the ECM.
