CHARGING THE BATTERY
CAUTION:
• Do not “quick charge” a fully discharged battery.
• Keep the battery away from open flame while it is being charged.
• When connecting the charger, connect the leads first, then turn on the charger. Do not turn on the
charger first, as this may cause a spark.
• If battery electrolyte temperature rises above 55 °C (131 °F), stop charging. Alw ays charge battery at a
temperature below 55 °C (131° F).
Charging Rates
Do not charge at more than 50 ampere rate.
NOTE:
The ammeter reading on your battery charger will automatically decrease as the battery charges. This indi-
cates that the voltage of the battery is increasing norma lly as the state of charge improves. The charging amps
indicated above refer to initial charge rate.
• If, after charging, the specific gravity of any two cells varies more than 0.050, the battery should be replaced.
Trouble Diagnosis with Multita sking Battery Diagnostic StationINFOID:0000000005929011

STARTING SYSTEM
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005929014
M/T Models
Power is supplied at all times
• to starter motor terminal B, and
• through 40A fusible link (letter h, located in the fuse and fusible link box)
• to ignition switch terminal B.
With the ignition switch in the START position, power is supplied
• from ignition switch terminal ST
• to IPDM E/R terminal 21.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
• through 10A fuse (No. 49, located in the IPDM E/R)
• to the clutch interlock switch terminal 1.
With the clutch pedal depressed, power is supplied
• through the clutch interlock switch terminal 2
• to IPDM E/R terminal 35.
Ground is supplied at all times
• to IPDM E/R terminals 39 and 59
• through body grounds E15 and E24.
If the IPDM E/R receives a starter relay request ON signal from the BCM over the CAN communication lines,
the IPDM E/R grounds the starter relay and power is supplied
• through terminal 19 of the IPDM E/R
• to terminal S of the starter motor.
The starter motor magnetic switch energizes closing the circuit between the battery and the starter motor. The
starter motor is case ground through the cylinder block. With power and ground supplied, the starter motor
operates.
