IGNITION SWITCH
Operation
Your vehicle uses either a key start ignition system or
keyless ignition system. The key start ignition system
consists of a Key Fob with a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter and an Ignition Node Module (IGNM). The
keyless ignition system consists of a Key Fob with
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a Keyless
Ignition Node (KIN).
Models With Integrated Vehicle Key
The Ignition Node Module (IGNM) operates similar to an
ignition switch. It has three operating positions, two with
detents and one that is spring-loaded. The detent posi-
tions are STOP/OFF, MAR/RUN, and AVV/START. The
AVV/START position is a spring-loaded momentary
contact position. When released from the AVV/START
position, the switch automatically returns to the MAR/
RUN position.1 — STOP/OFF
•The engine is stopped.
•The key can be removed from the IGNM.
•The steering column can be locked (with the ignition
key removed).Ignition Node Module (IGNM)

•Some electrical devices (e.g. power locks, alarm, etc.)
are still available.
2 — MAR/RUN
•Driving position.
•Electrical devices are available.
3 — AVV/START
•Start the engine.
The ignition switch is provided with a safety mechanism.
If the engine fails to start, the ignition should be returned
to the STOP/OFF position prior to repeating the starting
procedure.
On models equipped with an automatic transmission, the
ignition key is only removable when the shift lever is in
PARK (P).Models With Keyless Enter-N-Go
This feature allows the driver to operate the ignition
switch with the push of a button as long as the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is in the passenger
compartment.
The Keyless Ignition Node (KIN System) has three oper-
ating positions. The three positions are STOP, RUN, and
START.
NOTE:If the ignition switch does not change with the
push of a button, the RKE transmitter (Key Fob) may
have a low or dead battery. In this situation, a back up
method can be used to operate the ignition switch. Put
the nose side (side opposite of the emergency key) of the
Key Fob against the ENGINE START/STOP button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
