(3) Check that the steering lock operates when a door is opened.

(4) Check the push-button start function operation range for the front side. Place the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly at either inspection point so that it is facing the direction shown in the illustration, and then check that the engine can be started.

NOTICE:

Even if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in a vehicle interior detection area, it may not be properly detected if it is on the instrument panel, in the glove box or on the floor.

HINT:

  • Communication may not be possible if the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is within 0.2 m (0.656 ft.) of the No. 1 indoor electrical key antenna assembly (front floor).
