Starter Signal Circuit

Starter Signal Circuit

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the engine is cranked, the intake air flow is slow, so fuel vaporization is poor. A rich mixture is therefore necessary in order to achieve good startability. While the engine is being cranked, the battery positive voltage is applied to terminal STA of the ECM. The starter signal id mainly used to increase the fuel injection volume for the starting injection control and after-start injection control.
