Normal Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Milan, 2006 Lincoln Zephyr, and 2006 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Under normal operation, constant power is supplied to the starter relay on circuit SBB23 (WH/RD), the starter on circuit SDC02 (RD) and to the ignition switch on circuit SBB14 (BN/RD). When the key is placed in the START position, with the vehicle in PARK or NEUTRAL or with the clutch pedal depressed, power is supplied to the smart junction box (SJB) on circuit CDC35 (BU/WH) through the SJB fuse 10 (30A) to the starter relay. Inputs from the transmission range (TR) sensor and clutch cutoff switch to the powertrain control module (PCM) provide a ground to the starter relay on circuit CDC12 (YE). When the coil of the relay is energized, it sends power to the starter motor on circuit CDC25 (BN/GN).
