- Check that all doors are closed and ignition key is not inserted in ignition key cylinder.
- While pushing ignition knob switch (1) of steering lock unit, check if ignition knob switch can be turned from its lock position.
If key indicator light (2) in combination meter lights in blue and ignition knob switch can be turned from its lock position in this check, keyless engine start operation is in good condition.
If key indicator light in combination meter lights in red and ignition knob switch cannot be turned from its lock position in this check, go to KEYLESS START SYSTEM CHECK .
NOTE: Pushing ignition knob switch for 5 seconds or longer causes function to protect steering lock releasing solenoid against heat to work. Then steering lock unit stops energizing solenoid, preventing ignition knob switch from turning. At the same time, key indicator light in combination meter turns off. In such case, take your hand off from ignition knob switch once and operate it again.
