DESCRIPTION
w/ Entry and Start System
The cranking holding control system keeps energizing the starter relay from when the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) detects the starter signal from the ignition switch until the certification ECU performs a judgment of "Engine started".
When the certification ECU detects the STSW signal, the certification ECU outputs the starter relay drive signal (STAR signal) to the starter relay through the clutch start switch or park/neutral position switch, and then, the engine is cranked. When the certification ECU receives a stable engine speed signal (NE signal), more specifically, when the NE signal reaches a predetermined value, the certification ECU stops outputting the STAR signal.
Also, the certification ECU monitors the starter relay operating conditions based on the STA terminal voltage status.

Note
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
Tech Tips
This chart is based on the premise that the engine can crank normally. If the engine cannot crank normally, proceed to Problem Symptoms Table Click here.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STARTER SIGNAL)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Starter Signal.
Read the value displayed on the tester when the ignition switch is turned to the ON and START positions.
