STARTING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
An electrically operated engine starting system is standard factory-installed equipment on this model. The starting
system is designed to provide the vehicle operator with a convenient, efficient and reliable means of cranking and
starting the internal combustion engine used to power the vehicle and all of its accessory systems from within the
safe and secure confines of the passenger compartment. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information and instructions on the recommended use and operation of the factory-installed starting system.
The starting system consists of the following components:
• Battery
• Starter Motor
• Starter Solenoid
• Ignition Switch
• Wire harnesses and connections (including the battery cables).
This section provides complete service information for the starter motor. Complete service information for the other
starting system components can be located as follows:
• (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM - DESCRIPTION).
• (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/IGNITION CONTROL - DESCRIPTION).
• (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/STARTING/STARTER MOTOR - OPERATION) for complete service information
and circuit diagrams for the starting system wiring components.
Group 8F - Engine Systems covers the Battery, Starting Systems, and Charging System. We have combined these
systems to make it easier to locate the information you are seeking within this Service Manual. However, when
attempting to diagnose any of these systems, it is important that you keep their interdependency in mind.
The battery, starting, and charging systems in the vehicle operate with one another, and must be tested as a com-
plete system. In order for the vehicle to start and charge properly, all of the components that are used in these
systems must perform within specifications.
The diagnostic procedures used in each of these groups include the most basic conventional diagnostic methods, to
the more sophisticated On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) built into the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Use of an
induction-type milliampere ammeter, volt/ohmmeter, battery charger, carbon pile rheostat (load tester), and 12-volt
test lamp may be required.
All OBD-sensed systems are monitored by the PCM. Each monitored circuit is assigned a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC). The PCM will store a DTC in electronic memory for any failure it detects. Refer to On-Board Diagnostic
Test For Charging System in the Diagnosis and Testing section of Charging System for more information. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/STARTING - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
