Engine does not Start: Description

When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in the vehicle and the engine switch is pressed, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives a signal and changes the power source mode. In addition, when the shift lever is in P or N*1 and the brake pedal*1 or clutch pedal*2 is depressed, the engine can be started by pressing the engine switch.

• *1: for Automatic Transmission
• *2: for Manual Transmission

HINT: 

• The engine can be started up with the shift lever in N only when the steering lock is unlocked*.
• If the engine switch is pressed when the power source mode is on (IG) and the shift lever is in a position other than P, the power source mode changes to on (ACC). If the shift lever is then moved to P and the engine switch is pressed while stepping on the brake pedal, the power source mode changes to off*.
• When the battery cable is disconnected and reconnected, the power source returns to the mode it was in before the battery cable was disconnected.

• *: for Automatic Transmission
