Pattern Select Switch Sport Mode Circuit [04/2018 - 08/2020]: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Toyota Avalon and 2019 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When selecting sport mode, the switch operation signal is sent to the hybrid vehicle control ECU. Following this, the system enters sport mode and the vehicle will be driven using sport mode. This signal is then transmitted from the hybrid vehicle control ECU via CAN to the combination meter assembly to illuminate the "SPORT" indicator.

HINT:

If the power switch is turned off while in sport mode, the drive mode will automatically be changed to normal mode when the power switch is turned on (IG).
