HINT:

When the battery cable is disconnected and reconnected, the power source returns to the mode it was in before the battery cable was disconnected.
If the engine switch is turned from on (IG) to on (ACC) with the shift lever in any position other than P, and then the shift lever is moved to P and the engine switch is pressed with the brake pedal depressed, the engine switch will be turned off.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly depressed while the engine is stopped, the brake booster pressure is released and the force required to depress the brake pedal to illuminate the stop lights increases.
