Component Description
| Component part | Description |
| Starter motor | The starter motor plunger closes and the motor is supplied with battery power, which in turn cranks the engine, when the S terminal is supplied with electric power. |
| Transmission range switch | Supplies power to the starter relay and starter control relay (inside IPDM E/R) when the selector lever is shifted into the P or N position. |
| IPDM E/R | CPU inside IPDM E/R operates the starter relay when the ignition switch is in the start position. |
| Clutch interlock switch (M/T Models) | Clutch interlock switch supplies power to the coil side of the starter when the clutch pedal is depressed to crank the engine. |
| ECM | ECM controls the starter relay inside the IPDM E/R. |
STARTING SYSTEM (WITHOUT INTELLIGENT KEY)
System Diagram
System Description
The starter motor plunger closes and provides a closed circuit between the battery and the starter motor. The starter motor is grounded to the cylinder block. With power and ground supplied, the starter motor operates.

STARTING SYSTEM (WITHOUT INTELLIGENT KEY) : System Description
CVT MODELS
- When the selector lever is in the P or N position, power is supplied to starter control relay by the transmission range switch. The IPDM E/R (CPU) detects selector lever P/N condition by the inputted signal.
- When engine cranking condition is satisfied, then battery power is supplied to starter motor (“S” terminal) through starter control relay.
M/T MODELS
When the clutch pedal is depressed, battery power is supplied to starter motor (“S” terminal).

Front fog lamp circuit
Description
The ipdm e/r (intelligent power distribution module engine room) controls the
front fog lamp relay based on
inputs from the bcm over the can communication lines. When the front fog lamp
relay is energized, power
