Component part Description
BCM BCM controls the starter relay inside IPDM E/R.
IPDM E/R CPU inside IPDM E/R controls the starter control relay.
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.
TCM TCM supplies power to the starter relay and starter control relay inside IPDM E/R when
the selector lever is shifted to the P or N position.
