With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied:

The starter motor plunger closes and provides a closed circuit between the battery and the starter motor. The starter motor is grounded to the cylinder block. With power and ground supplied, the starter motor operates. In the event that the CAN communication line fails, the IPDM E/R will continue to receive a starter relay on signal from the BCM as long as the ignition switch remains in the START or ON positions.
