How does the starting system work?

The starting system in a vehicle typically consists of the battery, ignition switch, starter motor, and associated wiring. When the ignition key is turned or the start button is pressed, the ignition switch sends voltage from the battery to the starter motor, engaging it to crank the engine. This process initiates the engine's combustion cycle, allowing it to start and run. Additionally, safety features may prevent the starter from operating unless certain conditions are met, such as the vehicle being in park or neutral.
