Keyless Engine Start FunctionS7RS0BA501003
When the ignition knob switch (2) installed to the steering lock unit (1) is pushed, the keyless start control module (3) 
activates the center antenna (4) to send out the request signa l in the vehicle compartment. When the remote controller 
(5) receives the request signal from th e center antenna, it transmits the ID code to the keyless start control module. 
The keyless start control module compares the ID code sent  by the remote controller with the ID code registered in the 
keyless start control module. When these ID codes match,  the keyless start control module makes the key indicator 
lamp (7) in the combination meter (6) light  in blue and unlocks the steering lock unit to enable the ignition knob switch 
to turn. When the ignition knob switch is turned to ON posit ion in this state, ID codes of ECM and keyless start control 
module are compared through CA N communication (immobilizer function). Wh en they match, turning the ignition knob 
switch to start position will start the engine.
NOTE
When ignition knob switch is at ACC or ON position (engine not running) and any door has been kept 
open for a certain time, it may happen that engine fails to start. In such a case, turn ignition knob 
switch to OFF position once and then try to start engine again.
 
When the ID code from the remote controller and the ID code  registered in the keyless start control module do not 
match or when the remote controller is outside the operation  area of the remote controller and the ignition knob switch 
is pushed, the steering lock unit cannot be unlocked and so the ignition knob switch cannot be turned. Then, the 
keyless start control module makes the key indicator lamp in t he combination meter light in red to warn the driver that 
it is not possible to turn the  ignition knob switch. Also, when  the ID code of ECM and that of the keyless start control 
module do not match, the engine cannot  be started even if the ignition knob switch is turned to the start position. Then 
ECM makes the immobilizer light in the combination mete r flash to warn the driver that it is not possible to start the 
engine.

Door Lock Function of Keyless Start SystemS7RS0BA501004
When the request switch (1) incorporated in the outside handle of the driver side door, front passenger side door or 
rear end door is pushed, the keyless start control modul e (2) activates the center antenna (3) and luggage room 
antenna (4) to send out the radio wave in the vehicle compartm ent to check if the remote controller (5) is in the vehicle 
compartment or not. When the keyless start control module  receives no signal from the remote controller (i.e., the 
remote controller does not exist in the vehicle compartment) , it activates the antenna (6) of the door of which the 
request switch has been pushed to send the request signal out of the compartment.
If the remote controller exists within the door lock operati on area, it receives the request signal sent from the above 
said antenna, sends the ID code of the remote controller and  the request signal to the keyless start control module and 
at the same time, it makes the operatio n indicator lamp (7) of the remote controller light up. Lighting of the operation 
indicator lamp indicates that the remote controller sent the ID code and the request signal. 
The keyless start control module compares the ID code sent  from the remote controller with the ID code registered in 
the keyless start control module. If both ID codes match, the keyless start control module outputs the lock or unlock 
request signal (depending on the door lock switch (8) stat e then) to BCM (9). When BCM receives such signal through 
CAN communication from the keyless start control module, it  activates the door lock actuator to lock or unlock doors.
When the keyless start control module receiv es a signal from the remote controller (i.e., the remote controller exists in 
the vehicle compartment), the function of the keyless start system to prevent the remote controller from being closed in 
the vehicle works and the keyless start control module sends  a request signal to unlock doors to BCM. In this way, 
doors are kept unlocked.
Also, when the driver or passenger has left the vehicl e with the remote controller left behind in the vehicle 
compartment and locked doors by using the door lock knob or manual door lock switch, the function to prevent the 
remote controller from being closed in the vehicle works to unlock doors.
Furthermore, when ID codes of the remote controller and keyless start control module do not match or the remote 
controller exists outside of the operation area, doors are  not locked or unlocked even if the request switch of the 
outside handle is operated.

Diagnostic Information and Procedures
Precautions in Diagnosing TroublesS7RS0BA504001
• The keyless start system executes data transmission/reception by means of th e radio wave. Therefore, 
proper operation may not be obtained if use of the 
door lock function and engine start function of the 
keyless start system is attempted near the place 
where strong radio wave is emitted (TV and radio 
broadcasting stations, etc.).
• Diagnostic information stored  in keyless start control 
module memory can be checked only by key indicator 
lamp.
• Be sure to use the trouble diagnosis procedure as  described in “Keyless Start  System Check”. Failure to 
follow it may result in incorrect diagnosis. (Some other 
DTC may be stored by mistake in the memory of 
keyless start control module during inspection.)
• Be sure to read “Precautions for Electrical Circuit  Service in Section 00” befo re inspection and observe 
what is written there.
• Communication of ECM, BCM, TCM (A/T model),  ABS control module, keyless start control module and 
combination meter is estab lished by CAN (Controller 
Area Network). (For detail of CAN communication for 
keyless start control module, refer to “CAN 
Communication System Description”). Therefore, 
handle CAN communication line with care referring to 
“Precaution for CAN Communication System in 
Section 00”. • Replacement of the keyless start control module
When keyless start control module is replaced with 
new one, make sure that r egister remote controller ID 
code to keyless start co ntrol module correctly 
according to “Registration Procedure for Remote 
Controller ID Code”.
• Keyless start control module substitution When the keyless start control module used in 
another vehicle was installed in the vehicle, register 
the ID code of the remote controller in the keyless 
start control module as well as the ignition key 
transponder code fo r the immobilizer control system in 
ECM. For the registration procedure of the ignition key 
transponder code, refer to “Registration of the Ignition 
Key in Section 10C”.
Self-Diagnosis FunctionS7RS0BA504002
The keyless start control module has self-diagnosis 
function to monitor the system components and circuits 
while the keyless start system is at work. When the 
keyless start control module detects an abnormality in 
the system, it saves the ar ea where such abnormality 
has occurred as a DTC in its memory. The DTC stored in 
memory of the keyless start control module is indicated 
by the key indicator lamp  in the combination meter 
flashing in a specific pattern. For DTC indication, refer to 
“DTC Check” and for the clearing procedure, to “DTC 
Clearance”.
