similar to an ignition switch. It has four oper -
ating positions: three with detents and one
that is spring-loaded. The detent positions
are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The START
position is a spring-loaded momentary contact position. When released from the
START position, the switch automatically
returns to the ON/RUN position.

are OFF, ACC, ON/RUN, and START.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch does not change with
the push of a button, the key fob may have a
low or depleted battery. In this situation, a
back up method can be used to operate the
ignition switch. Put the nose side (side oppo -
site of the emergency key) of the key fob
against the START/STOP ignition button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
