Operation After Replacing Starter

Note
•  If the number of times the starter can operate exceeds the limit, or there is any malfunction of the i-stop system-related parts, the i-stop warning light (amber) flashes.In addition, DTCs are stored simultaneously.
•  To ensure reliability of the i-stop system, replace the starter with a new one if the number of times the starter can operate has exceeded the upper limit.
•  When replacing the starter, perform the following procedure: When replacing the PCM simultaneously, perform the PCM configuration first. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 1.5].) (See PCM CONFIGURATION (USING READ/WRITE FUNCTION) [SKYACTIV-D 1.5].) (See PCM CONFIGURATION (USING AS-BUILT DATA) [SKYACTIV-D 1.5].)
