Power Swich Assembly Wiring Guide: DIY Pinout Diagram

What is: The vehicle push-button Power Switch Assembly is an electronic ignition control that allows the driver to turn the vehicle ON or OFF without a traditional key. When pressed, it sends a signal to the vehicle’s control modules to activate accessory, ignition, or hybrid/engine systems, depending on brake input and vehicle status.

1. Introduction

      The  Toyota Prius 3rd Generation push-button Power Switch Assembly (89611-33010) is a keyless ignition component designed for efficient hybrid vehicle operation. It allows the driver to start or shut down the vehicle by pressing the POWER button, eliminating the need for a conventional ignition key. Working together with the smart key system, brake pedal switch, and hybrid vehicle control ECU, it ensures safe and accurate system activation. The assembly controls power modes such as OFF, ACC, and ON/READY, depending on driver input. Its back-illuminated design provides clear status indication, enhancing usability, safety, and overall driving convenience in the Prius ZVW30.

3. Quick Pin Summary – L43 Connector

14-Pin Black Connector

  • L43-1 Not used (Reserved) :
    No electrical function. Terminal is not connected or used in this model.
  • L43-2 SS2 (Power Switch Signal 2) :
    Detects POWER button operation state. Used by the system to determine switch press logic. Connected to Power Management Control ECU, connector L6, terminal 17 (SSW2).
  • L43-3 Not used (Reserved) :
    No circuit function. Terminal is inactive.
  • L43-4 Not used (Reserved) :
    No electrical role in operation.
  • L43-5 GND (Ground) :
    Provides chassis ground reference for the power switch circuit. Ensures stable signal operation and noise reduction. Connected to Body Ground Point L1
  • L43-6 Not used (Reserved) :
    No connection assigned.
  • L43-7 SS1 (Power Switch Signal 1) :
    Primary POWER button signal detection. Works with SS2 to identify press timing and mode selection. Connected to Power Management Control ECU, connector L5, terminal 7 (SSW1).
  • L43-8 AGND (Analog Ground) :
    Reference ground for analog signal processing. Improves accuracy of communication signals. Connected to Certification ECU, connector L62, terminal 36 (AGND).
  • L43-9 TXCT (Transponder Communication) :
    Handles communication between power switch and smart key system. Used for key authentication logic. Connected to Certification ECU, connector L62, terminal 13 (TXCT).
  • L43-10 CODE (Immobilizer Code Signal) :
    Transfers coded authorization data. Ensures vehicle can only start with a valid smart key. Connected to Certification ECU, connector L62, terminal 13 (CODE).
  • L43-11 SWIL (Switch Illumination Control) :
    Controls back-lighting of the POWER button. Brightness and ON/OFF status managed by ECU. Connected to Certification ECU, connector L62, terminal 11 (SWIL).
  • L43-12 INDS (Indicator Signal – Status) :
    Outputs READY / operating status indicator signal. Used to drive visual feedback on the switch. Connected to Power Management Control ECU, connector L5, terminal 8 (INDS).
  • L43-13 INDW (Indicator Warning) :
    Controls warning or mode indicator lighting. Works with system logic for driver feedback. Connected to Power Management Control ECU, connector L5, terminal 9 (INDW).
  • L43-14 VC5 (5-Volt Reference Supply) :
    Supplies regulated reference voltage to the switch circuitry. Used for internal signal detection and logic. Connected to Certification ECU, connector L62, terminal 28 (VC5).

Quick Note:The Power Switch Assembly converts the driver’s button press into multiple logic signals (SS1, SS2) used by the Power Management Control ECU to control OFF, ACC, ON, and READY modes. It communicates with the Certification ECU for smart key authentication, immobilizer coding, illumination control, and 5-volt reference supply. Ground and analog ground circuits ensure stable and noise-free operation, while indicator outputs provide visual status feedback to the driver.
