Cranking Signal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Savana and 2003 Chevrolet Chevy Express. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

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