    1. Disconnect the A74, R1 and J41 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
    2. Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      HINT: 

      Measure the values on the wire harness side with the connector disconnected.

      Tester Connection Input/Output Wiring Color Terminal Description Condition Specified Condition Related Data List Item
      A74-20 (STA) - Body ground Input B - Body ground When starting the engine, this monitors the voltage sent from terminal STAR to the starter relay to judge whether the engine is "being started". 20°C (68°F) 106.78 to 115.98 Ω -
      A74-9 (STAR) - Body ground Input/Output B - Body ground Outputs voltage to the starter relay
      • Outputs voltage (12 V) to the starter relay when starting the engine. (Max. 30 sec. Turns off when an engine speed of 1000 rpm.)

      HINT: 
      When Hi is selected, a start request signal (STAR) will not be output even though a start request signal (STSW) is input.
