of 60 seconds without the engine starting
before the starting system temporarily

time, without the engine starting, you
reached the 60-second time limit. A

alerting you that you exceeded the cranking
time. You cannot attempt to start the engine
for at least 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, you
are limited to a 15-second engine cranking
time. You need to wait 60 minutes before
