"ON" (both switches are closed), the
starter motor can only operate if at least one of the following conditions is
met:
- The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is closed).

current cannot reach the
starter motor. When at least one of the above conditions has been met, the
starting circuit cut-off relay
is closed and the engine can be started by pressing the start switch "
