Engine Start/Stop Switch Test/Replacement
1. Remove the driver's inner dashboard trim Driver's Inner Dashboard Trim Removal / Installation.
2. Disconnect the 10P connector (A) from the engine start/stop switch (B).
3. Remove the two screws, and the engine start/stop switch.
4. Check for continuity between the terminals in each switch position according to the table.
NOTE:
- Make sure the correct test lead (+ or -) is placed on the terminal.
- When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting () on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
- Note this important operating characteristic; diode bias causes a diode to fully conduct electricity in one direction (forward), while not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).
5. Install the switch in the reverse order of removal.
