DESCRIPTION
When the key 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 and the brake pedal is depressed, the engine can be started by pressing the engine switch.
Tech Tips
When the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is replaced with a new one and the cable is connected to the negative (-) battery terminal, the power source mode changes to on (IG).
When the battery cable is disconnected and reconnected, the power source returns to the mode it was in before the battery cable was disconnected.

WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When using the GTS with the engine switch off, connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start(CAN). While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.
The entry and start system (for Start Function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting Click here. Troubleshoot the entry and start system (for Start Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
If the entry and start system is disabled through the customize function, enable the system before performing troubleshooting.
Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upr bracket assembly), ECM or ID code box (immobiliser code ECU), refer to the entry and start system (for Start Function) precaution.
Inspect the fuses of circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
If the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upr bracket assembly) is replaced, be sure to confirm that the steering is unlocked by turning the steering wheel to the left and right before starting the engine. If the steering is locked for any reason, open and close a door with the engine switch off, and then unlock the steering by pressing the engine switch. This prevents the engine from starting while the steering is locked.
After completing repairs, confirm that the problem does not occur.
Tech Tips
If the brake pedal is repeatedly depressed while the engine is stopped, the brake booster pressure is released and the force required to depress the brake pedal to illuminate the stop lights increases.
PROCEDURE
CHECK BATTERY
Measure the battery voltage.
| Standard Voltage |
|---|
| 11 to 14 V |
Tech Tips
It may be possible to tell whether the vehicle battery is discharged by operating the horn.
If the battery voltage is less than 11 V, charge or replace it.
