Ito headlamp LH and RH relays terminal 2 from headlamp battery saver control unit terminals 2 and 8
Ithrough headlamp battery saver control unit terminals 3 and 9, and
Ithrough lighting switch terminal 12.
Then headlamps illuminate again.
AUTO LIGHT OPERATIONNBEL0188S05When lighting switch is in ªAUTOº position, ground is supplied
Ito auto light control unit terminal 10
Ifrom lighting switch terminal 42.
When ignition switch is turn to ªONº or ªSTARTº position and outside brightness is darker than prescribed level.
Ground is supplied
Ito headlamp relay LH and RH terminals 2
Ithrough battery saver control unit
Ifrom auto light control unit terminal 6, and
Ito tail lamp relay terminal 1
Ithrough battery saver control unit
Ifrom auto light control unit terminal 7.
Then both headlamp relays and tail lamp relay are energized, headlamps (low or high) and tail lamps are illu-
minate according to switch position.
Auto light operation allows headlamps and tail lamps to go off when
IIgnition switch is turned to ªOFFº position or
IOutside brightness is brighter than prescribed level.
NOTE:
The delay time is varies up to maximum of 20 seconds as the outside brightness changes.
For parking, license and tail lamp auto operation, refer to ªPARKING, LICENSE AND TAIL LAMPSº.
THEFT WARNING SYSTEMNBEL0188S06The theft warning system will flash the low beams if the system is triggered. Refer to ªTHEFT WARNING

EL-33

Trouble DiagnosesNBEL0189WARNING:
IThe xenon headlamp has a high-tension current generating area. Be extremely careful when remov-
ing and installing. Be certain to disconnect the battery negative cable prior to removing or install-
ing.
IWhen the xenon headlamp is lit, do not touch the harness (covered with red or amber insulation),
bulb itself or the bulb socket with your bare hands.
INever service a xenon headlamp with wet hands.
IWhen checking body side harness with a circuit tester, be certain to disconnect the harness con-
nector from the xenon headlamp.
IWhen the xenon headlamp is lit, the xenon bulb must be installed in the headlamp housing. (Never
turn on xenon headlamp, if the bulb is out of the headlamp housing.)
CAUTION:
Make sure to install the bulb securely; if the xenon bulb is improperly installed in its socket, high-ten-
sion current leaks occur. This may lead to a melted bulb and/or bulb socket.
Symptom Possible cause Repair order
Neither headlamp operates. 1. 7.5A fuse
2. Headlamp relay circuit
3. Lighting switch
4. Lighting switch ground circuit
5. Headlamp battery saver control
unit1. Check 7.5A fuse [No. 24, located in fuse block
(J/B)].
Verify battery positive voltage is present at terminal
7 of headlamp battery saver control unit.
2. Check between battery saver control unit and head-
lamp relays (LH and RH).
3. Check Lighting switch.
4. Check harness between lighting switch terminal 8
and ground.
5. Check headlamp battery saver control unit.
Headlamp LH (low and high beam)
does not operate, but headlamp
RH (low and high beam) does
operate.1. 15A fuse
2. Headlamp LH relay
3. Headlamp LH relay circuit1. Check 15A fuse (No. 60, located in fusible link and
fuse box). Verify battery positive voltage is present
at terminals 1 and 3 of headlamp LH relay.
2. Check headlamp LH relay.
3. Check harness between headlamp LH relay and
headlamp battery saver control unit.
Headlamp RH (low and high beam)
does not operate, but headlamp LH
(low and high beam) does operate.1. 15A fuse
2. Headlamp RH relay
3. Headlamp RH relay circuit1. Check 15A fuse (No. 59, located in fusible link and
fuse box). Verify battery positive voltage is present
at terminals 1 and 3 of headlamp RH relay.
2. Check headlamp RH relay.
3. Check harness between headlamp RH relay and
headlamp battery saver control unit.
LH high beam does not operate,
but LH low beam operates.1. Bulb
2. Headlamp LH relay
3. Open in the LH high beams cir-
cuit
4. Lighting switch
5. Lighting switch ground circuit1. Check bulb.
2. Check headlamp LH relay.
3. Check the following.
a. Harness between headlamp LH relay terminal 5 and
headlamp LH for open circuit.
b. Harness between headlamp LH and lighting switch
for open circuit.
4. Check lighting switch.
5. Check harness between lighting switch and ground.

Bulb Replacement/Xenon TypeNBEL0190CAUTION:
IAfter replacing a new xenon bulb, be sure to make aiming
adjustments.
IHold only the plastic base when handling the bulb. Never
touch the glass envelope.
IDo not leave headlamp reflector without bulb for a long
period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering head-
lamp body may affect the performance of the headlamp.
Remove headlamp bulb from the headlamp reflector just
before a replacement bulb is installed.
1. Disconnect negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect headlamp connector.
3. Remove headlamp assembly.
WARNING:
Never service a xenon headlamp without disconnecting nega-
tive battery cable and with wet hands.
