(Installation).
15. Reconnect kickdown flying lead connector and verify setting.
16. Install air cleaner cover / intake assembly; refer 19.10.30.
17. Check coolant level and top up if required.
18. Reconnect battery ground cable (IMPORTANT, see SRO

The BPM
'CRANK SELECTED' terminal is ta
ken to 0V by the ignition switch.
The BPM
'O/P ENGINE CRANK' terminal pr
ovides a path to ground for the starte r relay coil, via Fuse 5 (10A) located
in the engine compartment front fusebo x. This path to ground also indicates to the ECM 'I/P ENGINE CRANK'
terminal, by taking it to 0V, that the engine has been requested to crank.
Wi
th the starter relay contacts closed,
power via Fuse 3 (25A) in the engine compartment rear fusebox, is supplied
to the pull-in winding of the starter solenoid.
The s
olenoid main contacts close and are held
closed by the solenoid hold-in winding.
Battery power is supplied
to
the starter motor through the solenoid main contacts, direct from the battery and the
High Power Protection Module.

NOTE: During cranking with the engine disabled, observe the engine cranking speed. A cranking speed as low as 90 rpm
is acceptable, but will be difficult to measure. A degree of discretion must be used as to when an engine is cranking too
slowly.

The
ignition coils supply relay is located
in the engine and transmission control mo dule compartment; refer to Relay Details
in Electrical Wiring and Circuit Protection, Section 418-01.
The ECM switches a ground to the coil of the ignition coils supply relay; the relay energizes and switches a 12v supply to the
ignition control modules and the ignition coils.

TE: When performing electrical voltag
e or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to 3
decimal places, and with an up-t o-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the
DMM leads into account.
• NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic ro utines involving pinpoint tests.
