Starting Engine: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The method of starting engine is as follows.
- When brake pedal is depressed with shift position in "P" or "N" (CVT model) or when clutch pedal is depressed (M/T model), keyless start control module (1) sends request signal to combination meter (2) through CAN communication to display "PUSH START SWITCH" on the information display.
- Push engine switch (3) with remote controller (4) being carried.
- Keyless start control module activates mid inside antenna (5) to send request signal to remote controller.
- Remote controller receives request signal and then sends ID code to keyless start control module via keyless entry/TPMS receiver (6).
- Keyless start control module compares ID code sent from remote controller with ID code registered in keyless start control module. If ID codes match, keyless start control module outputs a steering lock release request signal to steering lock unit (7). At the same time, it outputs engine start signal to ECM (8) and turns the starting motor control relay ON to activate the starting motor (9). This enables the steering lock to be released and the engine to be started.
