SFI SYSTEM Starter Signal Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the engine switch is pushed (when engine start is permitted), the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) outputs voltage from terminal STAR (starter pinion operation signal) to the ST NO. 1 relay, via the park/neutral position switch assembly, to operate the starter pinion gear.

Then the starter delay circuit built into the engine stop and start ECU outputs voltage from terminal STA2 (starter motor operation signal) to the ST NO. 2 relay to operate the starter motor.

When the voltage output from terminal STA2 (starter motor operation signal) of the engine stop and start ECU is input to terminal STA of the ECM, the ECM determines that the engine is cranking, and begins engine control for engine start.
