Starter Signal Circuit |
DESCRIPTION
By using the starter delay circuit, the engine stop and start ECU can activate the ST NO. 2 relay (for starter motor operation) after activating the ST NO. 1 relay (for starter pinion operation) to operate the starter assembly.
WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
-
Before replacing the engine stop and start ECU, read the number of starter operations and write it into a new engine stop and start ECU.
