Abstract
A starter motor controller for a starter motor operatively connected to a single coil solenoid includes a first pair of switches including a first solenoid switch and a second solenoid switch. The first solenoid switch selectively completes a first electrical circuit for delivering a first electrical current to the single coil solenoid and the second solenoid switch selectively completes a second electrical circuit for delivering a second electrical current to the single coil solenoid that is less than the first electrical current. A second pair of switches includes a first starter motor switch and a second starter motor switch. The first starter motor switch selectively completes a first electrical circuit for delivering a first electrical power to the starter motor and the second starter motor switch selectively completes a second electrical circuit for delivering a second electrical power to the starter motor that is greater than the first electrical power.
