Key-on Reminder

Ignition Key Switch Test

NOTE: Refer to page 23-160 for the wiring description of the key-on beeper circuit diagram, and page 23-162 for the input test of the beeper circuit.
When the ignition key is not removed, the key-on beeper in the integrated control unit senses ground through the closed ignition key switch. When you open the driver's door, the beeper circuit senses ground through the closed door switch. With ground at the "A1" and "A3" terminals, the beeper sounds.

1. Remove the dashboard lower cover and knee bolster (see page 23-70).

2. Disconnect the 7-P connector on the under-dash fuse box.


3. There should be continuity between the No. 2 and No. 4 terminals when the ignition key is inserted into the ignition key cylinder. There should be no continuity with the ignition key removed.

Door Switch Test

1. Open the door.
2. Remove the screw, then pull out the door switch.
3. Disconnect the 1-P connector from the switch.

4. There should be continuity between the positive terminal and base plate (ground) with the switch released (door opened). There should be no continuity with the switch pushed (door closed).
