i-stop INDICATOR LIGHT (GREEN) FLASHES

DESCRIPTION
•  i-stop indicator light (green) remains flashing during idling.*1
•  i-stop indicator light (green) remains flashing during i-stop.

Note
•  If the brake pedal depression is insufficient, the i-stop indicator light (green) illuminates and the i-stop function operates by increasing brake pedal depression. (AT)*1
•  If in gear while i-stop is operating, the i-stop indicator light (green) flashes continuously. (MT)
•  If the driver’s door is open while i-stop is operating, the i-stop warning light (green) flashes continuously. (European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.)
•  i-stop operation conditions are not met.*1
i-stop function operation conditions are not set*1
•  False detection of insufficient brake depression (fluid pressure). (AT)
―  Brake fluid pressure sensor (built-into DSC HU/CM) malfunction

*1  :The illumination status of the i-stop indicator light (green) differs depending on the PCM software version.

Diagnostic Procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

RESULTS

ACTION

1
VERIFY DTC

•  Is the shift lever shifted to a position other than neutral during i-stop operation?
Yes
Explain to the customer that the vehicle is normal, provide the conditions for i-stop operation, and advise the customer how to use it.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT NEUTRAL SWITCH
