Starting System: Description and Operation

General information
The starting system includes the battery, starter motor, solenoid switch, transaxle range switch (A/T only), connection wires and the battery cables. When the ignition key is turned to "S" position, current flows and energizes the starter motor's solenoid coil to activate the solenoid plunger and clutch shift lever, and the clutch pinion engages the ring gear to crank the starter motor.
