Keyless Starting System: Description and Operation
GENERAL INFORMATION
OSS (ONE-TOUCH START SYSTEM)
With the one-touch start system, when the engine switch mounted inside the vehicle is operated, OSS-ECU receives the stop lamp switch input signal from the brake pedal [CVT vehicle], the P range detection switch input signal from the selector lever assembly [CVT vehicle], and the clutch switch input signal from the clutch pedal [M/T vehicle], and performs the certification communication with keyless operation key using KOS-ECU, the certification communication with electric steering lock, and the engine start certification communication with ECM. Only when the input signals and certification communications are valid, the one-touch start system performs the power supply changeover control, the electric steering lock locking/unlocking control, and the engine start control.
ONE-TOUCH START SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
ONE-TOUCH START SYSTEM VALID AREA
The one-touch start system can be activated by the pressing of engine switch only when the keyless operation key is located within the inside antenna receiving area.
NOTE:
If the keyless operation key battery is discharged, the one-touch start system (power supply changeover, engine start/stop) becomes available when the keyless operation key is inserted into the key slot located in the glove box. When inserting the keyless operation key to the key slot, easy locking of the key can be performed by inserting the key from the emergency key side.
