DESCRIPTION
ENGINE START SYSTEM FUNCTION
If the engine switch is pressed with the shift lever is in the P or N position and the brake pedal depressed, the main body ECU determines that it is an engine start request.
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and other ECUs perform key verification via the LIN communication line.
The main body ECU activates the ACC relay.
The main body ECU activates the IG1 and IG2 relays.
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) outputs a steering UNLOCK signal. The signal is sent to the main body ECU via the steering lock ECU.
The main body ECU sends an engine start request signal to the ECM.
The ECM sends an ACC cut request signal to the main body ECU.
The ECM and main body ECU activate the starter relay.
The main body ECU deactivates the ACC relay until the main body ECU detects an engine start.
When engine revolution speed reaches 1200 rpm, the ECM determines that the engine has been started.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
EMERGENCY ENGINE START CONTROL
If there is a malfunction in the stop light switch circuit or STOP fuse, their signals may not be correctly transmitted to the main body ECU. This may result in the engine not starting even if the engine switch is pressed while the brake pedal is depressed and the shift lever is in the P position.
To activate the starter:
Turn the engine switch from off to on (ACC).
Press and hold the engine switch for 15 seconds.
Tech Tips
If the main body ECU is replaced with a new one while the negative (-) battery terminal is connected, the power source mode will be in IG-ON mode. When the battery is removed and reinstalled, the power source mode that was selected when the battery was removed is restored.
After the main body ECU, certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), steering lock ECU, ID code box (immobiliser code ECU) and/or ECM are/is replaced, perform the registration procedure for the engine immobiliser system.
PROCEDURE
CHECK THE ENGINE SWITCH CONDITION
Check that the power source mode changes.
When the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is in the P position, check that the power source mode changes.
