Starter Motor - Mitsubishi MOTORS 3000GT Bedienungsanleitung

OPERATION
For models equipped with the M/T, the clutch
pedal position switch contact is switched OFF
when the clutch pedal is depressed; when the
ignition switch is then switched to the "ST' posi-
tion, electricity flows to the starter relay and
the starter motor, the contact (magnetic switch)
of the starter is switched ON and the starter
motor is activated.
NOTE
If the ignition switch is switched to the "ST
position without the clutch pedal being de-
pressed, electricity flows to the starter relay
(coil), the clutch pedal position switch (contacts)
and to ground, with the result that the contacts
of the starter relay are switched OFF, and, be-
cause the power to the starter motor is thereby
interrupted, the starter motor is not activated.
For models equipped with the AIT, when the
l
ignition switch is switched to the "ST' position
while the selector lever is at the "P" or "N" posi-
tion, the contact (magnetic switch) of the starter
is switched ON and the starter motor is activated.

Caution
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10
seconds) to prevent coil from burning.
