ENTRY AND START SYSTEM - Engine does not Start |
DESCRIPTION
ENGINE START SYSTEM OPERATION |
When the engine switch is pressed with the brake pedal (except M/T) or clutch pedal (for M/T) depressed and the shift lever in P or N (except M/T), the main body ECU determines that it is an engine start request.
The certification ECU 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 engine switch indicator light illuminates in green.
The certification ECU outputs a steering unlock signal. The signal is sent to the steering lock ECU via the main body 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 ST cut relay.
The main body ECU deactivates the ACC relay until the ECU detects an engine start.
The ECU reactivates the ACC relay and turns off the engine switch indicator light.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.CHECK ENGINE SWITCH (SWITCH CONDITION) |
Check the power source mode change.
When the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is in P (except M/T), check that pressing the engine switch causes the power source mode to change as follows:
- OK:
- off → on (ACC) → on (IG) → off
2.CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT OCCURS |
Clear the DTCs (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000YEH04NX.html).
Check whether the trouble recurs 5 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG).
Check whether DTCs for the main body ECU or certification ECU are output.

3.CHECK CRANKING FUNCTION |
Check the engine cranking function.
When there is fuel in the fuel tank, the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is in P (except M/T), check that depressing the brake pedal (except M/T) or clutch pedal (for M/T) and pressing the engine switch causes the engine to crank.
