When activated (via stop/start button or key), an electrical signal is sent to the starter solenoid, which transfers power from the battery to the starter motor. This activates the starter drive mechanism (Bendix), engaging the flywheel to crank the engine and initiate combustion. Once the engine is running, the starter motor automatically disengages.
