Symptom Possible cause Repair order
LH low beam does not operate, but
LH high beam operates.1. 20A fuse
2. Headlamp LH relay
3. Open in the LH low beam circuit
4. LH low beam ground circuit
5. Xenon bulb
6. HID control unit
7. Booster1. Check 20A fuse (No. 32, located in fusible link and
fuse box). Verify battery positive voltage is present
at terminal 6 of headlamp LH relay.
2. Check headlamp LH relay
3. Check harness between headlamp LH relay terminal
7 and headlamp LH for open circuit.
4. Check harness between headlamp LH and ground.
5. Replace the xenon bulb with other side bulb or new
one. (If headlamps illuminate correctly, replace the
bulb.)
6. Replace the HID control unit with other side control
unit or new one. (If headlamps illuminate correctly,
replace the control unit.)
7. Replace booster as a headlamp assembly.
RH high beam does not operate,
but RH low beam operates.1. Bulb
2. Headlamp RH relay
3. Open in the RH high beams
circuit
4. Lighting switch1. Check bulb.
2. Check headlamp RH relay.
3. Check the following.
a. Harness between headlamp RH relay terminal 5 and
headlamp RH for open circuit
b. Harness between headlamp RH and lighting switch
for open circuit
4. Check lighting switch.
RH low beam does not operate,
but RH high beam operates.1. 20A fuse
2. Headlamp RH relay
3. Open in the RH low beam cir-
cuit
4. RH low beam ground circuit
5. Xenon bulb
6. HID control unit
7. Booster1. Check 20A fuse (No. 31 located in fusible link and
fuse box). Verify battery positive voltage is present
at terminal 6 of headlamp RH relay.
2. Check headlamp RH relay
3. Check harness between headlamp RH relay termi-
nal 7 and headlamp RH for open circuit.
4. Check harness between headlamp RH and ground.
5. Replace the xenon bulb with other side bulb or new
one. (If headlamps illuminate correctly, replace the
bulb.)
6. Replace the HID control unit with other side control
unit or new one. (If headlamps illuminate correctly,
replace the control unit.)
7. Replace booster as a headlamp assembly.
High beam indicator does not work. 1. Bulb
2. Open in high beam circuit1. Check bulb in combination meter.
2. Check the following.
a. Harness between headlamp LH relay and combina-
tion meter for an open circuit
b. Harness between high beam indicator and lighting
switch
Battery saver control does not
operate properly.1. RAP signal circuit
2. Door switch LH or RH circuit
3. Lighting switch circuit
4. Headlamp battery saver control
unit
5. Smart entrance control unit1. Check harness between headlamp battery saver
control unit terminal 10 and smart entrance control
unit terminal 5 for open or short circuit.
2. Check the following.
a. Harness between smart entrance control unit and
LH or RH door switch for open or short circuit.
b. LH or RH door switch ground circuit.
c. LH or RH door switch.
3. Check the following.
a. Harness between headlamp battery saver control
unit terminals 5 or 13 and lighting switch terminal 11
for open or short circuit.
b. Harness between lighting switch terminal 5 and
ground.
c. Lighting switch.
4. Check headlamp battery saver control unit.
5. Check smart entrance control unit. (EL-324)

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.
