SFI SYSTEM - Cranking Holding Function Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The cranking holding control system provides current to the starter when the ECM detects the engine switch start signal (STSW). When the ECM performs a firing judgment, the system cuts current to the starter. When an ECM receives the STSW signal, it turns off the ACC relay, which prevents flickering of the combination meter, clock, audio system, etc. Also, the ECM sends a signal to the STAR terminal of the ECM. Then the STAR output signal travels through the Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch to the ST relay, causing the starter to activate.
When the engine is cranking, the starter operation signal is sent to the STA terminal of the ECM.

Refer to DTC P0617 ().
