2008 Chevrolet Chevy Express G2500, Van Cargo, 6.6 6SECTION Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 GMC Yukon, 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2012 Cadillac Escalade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This vehicle does not use a 12V starter motor to crank the internal combustion engine. A much more powerful 300V drive motor generator located within the transmission is utilized to crank the engine. The 300V drive motor generator can rotate the engine to operating speed (800 RPM) within just a few hundred milliseconds. The hybrid powertrain control module can detect a condition where the engine is cranking but does not start or has stalled.
