System Description
OPERATION
Headlamp system on vehicles for North Europe contains a daytime light system. The unit operates to illumi-
nate headlamps low beam, parking, tail, license lamps and illuminations automatically in the following condi-
tions.
+The engine is running with lighting switch in OFF position.
When the any of following conditions exists, the daytime light operation will be canceled.
+Ignition switch is in any position other than ON
+Engine is stopped
+Lighting switch is turned to 1st or 2nd position.
If the daytime light system is canceled, lighting switch operations are the same as for conventional light sys-
tem.
DAYTIME LIGHT IS OPERATING
(With engine running and lighting switch in OFF position)
With engine running, power is supplied
+from alternator terminal L
+through daytime light control unit terminalj
8
+to base of transistor-2 in the daytime light control unit.
The transistor-2 supplies ground path to all relays. Then the relays energize to illuminate lamps.

DAYTIME LIGHT IS CALCELED
(Lighting switch in 1st or 2nd position or ignition switch in START position)
+Ignition switch is in START position
+Lighting switch is in 1st or 2nd position.
When one of the above conditions exists, power is supplied
+to base of the transistor-1 in daytime light control unit
+through daytime light control unit terminalj
11orj6.
And then, power supply path to the base transistor-2 is interrupted to cancel daytime light operation.

System Description
The warning chime is combined with the smart entrance control unit.
Both the ignition key and light warning chime will not sound, when ignition switch in the ON or START posi-
tion. (When power supply exists at smart entrance control unit terminalj
12.)
IGNITION KEY WARNING CHIME
With the key in the ignition key cylinder, the ignition switch in the OFF or ACC position, and the driver's door
open, the warning chime will sound. A battery positive voltage is supplied
+from key switch terminalj
1
+to smart entrance control unit terminalj1.
Ground is supplied
+through driver side door switch
+to smart entrance control unit terminalj

Filament Repair
REPAIR EQUIPMENT
1. Conductive silver composition (Dupont No. 4817 or equivalent)
2. Ruler 30 cm (11.8 in) long
3. Drawing pen
4. Heat gun
5. Alcohol
6. Cloth
REPAIRING PROCEDURE
1. Wipe broken heat wire and its surrounding area clean with a
cloth dampened in alcohol.
2. Apply a small amount of conductive silver composition to tip of
drawing pen.
Shake silver composition container before use.
3. Place ruler on glass along broken line. Deposit conductive sil-
ver composition on break with drawing pen. Slightly overlap
existing heat wire on both sides [preferably 5 mm (0.20 in)] of
the break.
4. After repair has been completed, check repaired wire for con-
tinuity. This check should be conducted 10 minutes after silver
composition is deposited.
Do not touch repaired area while test is being conducted.
5. Apply a constant stream of hot air directly to the repaired area
for approximately 20 minutes with a heat gun. A minimum dis-
tance of 3 cm (1.2 in) should be kept between repaired area
and hot air outlet. If a heat gun is not available, let the repaired
area dry for 24 hours.
