SFI SYSTEM - Starter Signal Circuit


DESCRIPTION

While the engine is being cranked, current flows from terminal STAR of the power management control ECU to the park/neutral position switch (for automatic transmission) or clutch start switch (for manual transmission) and also flows to terminal STA of the ECM (STA Signal).
