CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the Techstream with the ignition switch off to troubleshoot:

    Connect the Techstream to the vehicle, and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5 second intervals until communication between the Techstream and vehicle begins.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
  • Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) or steering lock actuator with ECU assembly, refer to the smart key system (for start function).
