  1. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION 
    1. Interview the customer to confirm the problem.

      Result

      Proceed to
      Hunting
      Hesitation/poor acceleration

    Result:

    See step  8

    Result: 

    Hunting 

    See step  2

  2. PAST ACTIVATION CONFIRMATION 
    1. Check if the customer operated the vehicle in a way that would cause the drive start control to operate.

      HINT: 

      Drive Start Control Activation Conditions 

      Shift control 

      1. Activation conditions
      • Pattern A (When all of the following conditions are met, control starts.)
        • The accelerator pedal is open by approximately 1/5 or more.
        • The shift state is changed from park (P) to any forward shift state (drive (D) or manual (M)) or reverse (R).
      • Pattern B (When all of the following conditions are met, control starts.)
        • The accelerator pedal is open by approximately 1/5 or more.
        • The shift state is changed from reverse (R) to any forward shift state (drive (D) or manual (M)), any forward shift state (drive (D) or manual (M)) to reverse (R), or neutral (N) to reverse (R).

          If the shift lever is moved to attempt to change the shift state from park (P) when the accelerator pedal is depressed, the shift state will not change and drive-start control will not operate.

      • Items Controlled
        • Driving force is restricted.
      • Deactivation Conditions
        • The accelerator pedal is released.
        • The shift state is in park (P) or neutral (N).

      Reverse control 

      1. Activation conditions
      • The shift state is in reverse (R).
      • The accelerator pedal is depressed excessively.
        GTY816363Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
      • Items Controlled
        • Driving force is restricted.
      • Deactivation Conditions
        • The accelerator pedal is released.
        • The shift state is changed to any shift state other than reverse (R).

      HINT: 

      • The driving force restricted level differs between pattern A, pattern B and Reverse control.
      • During reverse control or shift control, driving force is adjusted based on the road gradient and steering angle.
