A hood ajar switch is mounted near the hood latch and prevents
Auto Stop from functioning if the hood of the vehicle is not fully
latched.
If the hood is opened while the vehicle is in Auto Stop, the
tachometer will move to the OFF position and the engine will be
disabled from restarting unless the ignition key is used.
Note the hood ajar switch will not prevent current flow through the
36 volt electrical system.
