During cranking: Step 2 and step 3
Step 2: If the ECU receives the cranking signal after pre-heating (step 1), the GCU supplies the 1.

Under fixed temperature: The AQGS unit supplies power for 30 seconds (Step 1 + Step 3) if no
cranking signal is received after the step 1.
During cranking: The step 3 is started after the step 2. *

Post-glow: Step 4:
The post-heating is for reducing HC/CO after the engine is started. If the time for post-heating exceeds
180 sec., the GCU unit cuts off the power to each glow plug even if there is preheating request from the
engine ECU.
Emergency glow
If no CAN signal is received for 4 seconds from the engine ECU after the IGN ON signal is input, the
GCU performs emergency preheating (Step 3) for 30 seconds.

Start motor assembly
1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The starter (start motor) starts the engine with rotational power by converting the electric energy to the
mechanical energy.
When the engine is cranking, the pinion gear meshes with the ring gear. If the ring gear overruns, the
pinion gear clutch overruns to protect the pinion gear.

2. OPERATING PROCESS
1) System Layout
(1) Engine start
SKM performs the authentication process for the SMART key and sends the engine start request to
EMS if there is a normally coded SMART key when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button with the
SKM sends the start request signal to PCAN network and the cranking request to BCAN network by
button.
SKM turns off the IGN2/ACC relay during cranking to shut down the electric loads.
SKM receives the starting status signal from EMS throug PCAN.
EMS starts to crank the engine after checking the pre-heating condition if it receives the engine
cranking request 1 when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button. EMS starts to crank the engine
immediately if it receives the engine cranking request 2 when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button. 1.

Engine cranking request 1: when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button shortly in normal
conditions
Engine cranking request 2: when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button again after first press or
when pressing the Engine Start/Stp button for more than 3 seconds -

Engine start during driving 7.
When pressing the Engine Start/Stop button with IGN ON, the engine start is requested if the
the brake switch is ON (no need authentication for 30 seconds).
When pressing the Engine Start/Stop button with IGN ON, the engine start is requested
position (no need authentication for 30 seconds).
Except input of brake switch signal
In vehicle equipped with A/T, when pressing the Engine Start/Stop button for more than 10
seconds with ACC ON, the engine start is requested regardless of brake signal if the gear shift
