Cranking Signal

Cranking signal is a 12-volt signal monitored by the PCM. Signal is present when ignition switch is in the START position. The PCM/VCM uses signal to determine the need for starting enrichment. PCM/VCM also cancels diagnostics until engine is running and 12-volt signal is no longer present.
