Zusammenfassung:1. Field of the Invention A method for determining an operational state of a vehicle starter motor coupled to vehicle battery includes the steps of detecting a vehicle battery voltage, deriving an average vehicle battery voltage, and inferring the operational state of the starter motor based at least in part on a difference between the detected vehicle battery voltage and the average vehicle battery voltage.
