One-Touch Integrated Start (OTIS)

Once the ignition is turned to the START position (either with the key or using the Start/Stop switch) and the vehicle is in PARK or NEUTRAL, the PCM reads the starter motor request from the ignition switch or from the RFA module and gains control of the starter engagement. The customer is no longer in the loop after the initial crank request, the customer may release the key to the RUN/START position or release the Start/Stop switch. The PCM will disengage the starter motor based on the following events:

• The engine is started (RPM threshold)
• A set time has been exceeded (calibrated)
• The ignition has been turned to the OFF position
