XENON HEADLAMP SYSTEM
Trouble Diagnoses
DESCRIPTION
Problems with xenon headlamps are as follows:
They do not light up.
They blink.
GD
They are not bright enough.
In most cases the problems above are caused by faulty xenon bulbs.
There might be the possibility that the problems are caused by faulty HID control unit or lamp sockets.
ec
Follow the diagnostic procedure to determine what causes the problem.
PRECAUTIONS AT
Connect or disconnect connectors with the lighting switch OFF.
Do not touch harnesses, HID control unit, internal lamp, or metal part of the lamp while the lamps are
ON B2
(Lighting switch is ON).
Before verifying that the lamps are ON, install the parts to the vehicle temporarily and connect the battery
cable with
the connector on the vehicle. ST
If the electrical system is suspected to be the cause of the symptom, check for blown fuse or fusible link,
broken connectors, disconnected terminals, or faulty engagement.
Do not use wet hands when performing the trouble diagnoses.

CAUTION:
0 Do not use a tester to diagnose the HID control unit circuit.
0 Do not disassemble the HID control unit and harnesses (bulb socket harness and control unit har-
ness).
0 Immediately after the headlamps turn ON, brightness and emission color vary. This is a normal
condition.
When a bulb has reached the end of its life, the brightness becomes extremely low, the bulb con-
tinues to blink, or the light looks reddish.
