ENTRY AND START SYSTEM - Power Source Mode does not Change to ON (IG)
DESCRIPTION
When the engine switch is pushed with the electrical key in the cabin, the power source control ECU receives signals to switch the power source mode.
- To allow use of the intelligent tester to inspect the entry and start system when the engine switch is off, repeat opening and closing any of the doors. Opening and closing a door establishes communication between the intelligent tester and the power source control ECU. (Opening and closing a door can also be simulated by operating a door courtesy light switch.)
