Starting - operation (page 2 of 2)

If the engine has been re-mobilised, the Alarm ECU will provide an earth (C57-11) for the starter relay on a black wire.

Now the starter relay has been energised, a battery feed from fusible link 5 (C570-2) on a brown wire will flow across the relay (C151-87 & C151-30) to the starter motor (C179-1) on a brown/red wire. This feed will energise the starter motor solenoid, allowing a battery feed to flow across the solenoid switch and power the motor. An earth is provided by the starter motor casing.
