Yes, The ecm sends a ground to the starter relay which in turns sends current (power) to the starter relay or moving pole shoe, however yours is equipped.
The ecm receives a signal from the transmission position sensor so that the ecm knows whether the vehicle is in neutral or park. Thus only sending ground to relay when the proper shift position is attained.

Computer Card? What are you talking about? There is no computer card in this vehicle. It has a ECU or computer as it is sometimnes called. Without the ECU the car will not start, as the ECU controls the fuel pump relay and fuel/air mixture. I doubt you can. The vehicle is completely depenant upon that "brain" for everything.
