NOTICE:
If the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is replaced, register the key (See page ).
PROCEDURE
1. |
CHECK DTC OUTPUT |
(a) Clear the DTCs (See page ).
(b) Recheck for DTCs (See page ).
HINT:
If any DTCs other than DTC B279A are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily corroded, it should be replaced.
Otherwise, the tire may separate from the wheel or cause loss of handling control.
- Wheel selection
When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that they are equivalent ...
