Starting Mode

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

When the engine control module (ECM) detects reference pulses from the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor, the ECM will enable the fuel pump. The fuel pump runs and builds up pressure in the fuel system. The ECM then monitors the mass air flow (MAF), intake air temperature (IAT), engine coolant temperature (ECT), and the throttle position (TP) sensor signal in order to determine the required injector pulse width for starting.
