Ignition Switch-ST (M/T)

ECU System:





To test the Ignition Signal to the ECU, locate pins #4 and #9 of connector C50-3, and test for the presence of battery voltage with the ignition key in the "on" position. Both pins should have battery voltage present.

NOTE: To test pins do not remove the connector from the ECU, instead insert a straight pin or needle from the back side of the connector to access the pin.
