Hey,
Just wondering..
When you turn the key to ignition it automatically engages the starter for a few seconds even if you only turn the key quickly and then let go. If you understand what I'm referring to... it's not required to hold the key while the starter is going, you only need to turn the key quickly and the let go and the starter will go until the engine start. Its like when you hit the turn signal on some cars, often german, and the turn signal will automatically go for a few seconds.
Anyways, the question is, is it a computer or a relay that is doing this work? Is it the starter relay or where is this component?
AND is it possible to bypass this procedure, if I want to install a manual start press button switch going directly to the starter solenoid. I've only done this on older cars, and its simple, is it the same with this truck? ... Thanks
