Auto Idle Stop System Auto idle stop system does not operate (With Auto Idle Stop System) (2025)
Auto idle stop system does not operate
NOTE: When the 12 volt battery terminals are loose or corroded or an aftermarket electronic device is directly connected to the 12 volt battery negative terminal, the vehicle may wrongly detect the battery deterioration and this symptom may appear. Check for these conditions of the 12 volt battery terminals listed above before you troubleshoot and fix them as needed, then make sure that the indicator goes off when you start up the engine.
- DTC check
-1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
-2. How to Connect the HDS , then select the PGM-FI system with the HDS.
-3. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC DTC (PGM-FI)

Is starter counter value below the specified number?
YES
The starter counter system is OK. Go to step 3.
NO
Replacing parts and clearing the starter counter according to the Proper procedure.
- 12 volt battery check
-1. Start the engine.
-2. Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.
Signal Threshold Current conditions Values Unit Values Unit Idle Stop Inhibit (Battery Deterioration) INHIBITED Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?
YES
Replace the 12 volt battery - Refer to: 12 VOLT BATTERY REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, AND TEST (WITH ABSORBED GLASS MAT BATTERY TYPE) or 12 VOLT BATTERY REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, AND TEST (WITHOUT ABSORBED GLASS MAT BATTERY TYPE) .

Go to step 4.
- DTC check 2
-1. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
NOTE: The low atmospheric pressure caused by the high altitudes can inhibit the auto idle stop.
DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC P2226 BARO Sensor Circuit Malfunction P2227 BARO Sensor Circuit Out of Range High P2228 BARO Sensor Circuit Low Voltage P2229 BARO Sensor Circuit High Voltage Is DTC P2226, P2227, P2228, and/or P2229 indicated?
YES
Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting - Refer to: HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT THE FUEL AND EMISSIONS SYSTEMS .
NO
Go to step 5.
- Problem verification:
Do the auto idle stop system inspection.
NOTE:
- Some prohibited condition of the auto idle stop system can be checked by the parameter of the HDS. Check the following parameters while a vehicle stops. If the parameter is indicated INHIBITED, the auto idle stop is prohibited by its item.
- If the Idle Stop Inhibit (Battery Deterioration) is INHIBITED, do the 12 volt battery internal resistance reset procedure 12 VOLT BATTERY INTERNAL RESISTANCE RESET , then recheck. If INHIBITED is still displayed after reset procedure, replace the 12 volt battery - Refer to: 12 VOLT BATTERY REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, AND TEST (WITH ABSORBED GLASS MAT BATTERY TYPE) or 12 VOLT BATTERY REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, AND TEST (WITHOUT ABSORBED GLASS MAT BATTERY TYPE) , then do the 12 volt battery internal resistance reset procedure 12 VOLT BATTERY INTERNAL RESISTANCE RESET , and recheck.
- There is a parameter that is not supported by the application. Parameters that are not supported will not be displayed.

YES
The system is OK at this time.
NO
Go to step 6.
- Starter, Brake, Charging, A/T, EPS, VSA, EBB, SRS, electric parking brake system, PGM-FI system check
-1. Start the engine, and check the indicator on the gauge, and check for any DTC with the HDS.
Do charging system indicator, shift position indicator, EPS indicator, VSA indicator, brake system indicator, SRS indicator, electric parking brake indicator, and MIL indicator stay on or are any DTCs set?
-
YES
Do the troubleshooting for the system that indicator stays on.
- PGM-FI system - Refer to: HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT THE FUEL AND EMISSIONS SYSTEMS
- STARTER SYSTEM CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING
- A/T system - Refer to: A/T SYSTEM SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING INDEX (10-SPEED A/T) (2025)

Go to step 7.
-
- Shift position indicator check
-1. Shift the transmission to D position/mode while pressing the brake pedal firmly.
Does shift position indicator come on?
YES
Go to step 8.
NO
Do the following procedures:
- Do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function - Refer to: GAUGES SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION .
