Cranking Signal: Description and Operation
CRANK SIGNAL
The crank signal is sent from the starter motor circuit. When the starter motor circuit is energized as the ignition switch is in the START position, a crank
signal is supplied to the PCM. The PCM increases the fuel injector pulse when receiving a voltage on the crank signal circuit. The slight increase in fuel
provides quicker and smoother engine start-up. The crank signal is also used as an input for running certain engine control system diagnostics, such as
the CKP sensor DTC P0335. The crank signal input can be monitored on a scan tool as the Starter Switch parameter.
