AUTO LIGHT OPERATION
Applicable lamps

Low beam headlamp

Parking, license plate and tail lamps

High beam headlamp (with the lighting switch in HIGH BEAM position)

Front fog lamp (with the lighting switch in front fog lamp ON position)
When the lighting switch is in AUTO position with the ignition switch in ON position, BCM detects the AUTO
LIGHT (ON) by BCM combination switch reading function. BCM turns automatically ON/OFF the applicable
lamps according to ambient brightness depending on the following condition.

It turns ON applicable lamps in 3 seconds when ambient brightness is less than 1250 lux.

This lighted lamps is turned OFF in 5 seconds when ambient brightness becomes 2500 lux or higher.
Releasing Function:

Turn ignition switch to the OFF position, or

Change lighting switch to the OFF, 1ST, 2ND position.
NOTE:
Timing for when lamps turn ON/OFF can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 1 9 ,

CAN Communication System DescriptionBKS001O7
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitBKS001O8
Refer to LAN-49, "CAN System Specification Chart" .
Major Components and FunctionsBKS001O9
Components Functions
BCM

Turns ON/OFF circuits of parking lamp, license plate lamp, tail lamp and headlamp according to signals from
optical sensor, lighting switch (AUTO), and ignition switch (ON, OFF).
Optical sensor

Converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage, and sends it to BCM. (Detects brightness of 800 to 2500 lux)

AFS (ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM)

Bending lamp (exclusive lamp for AFS) turn ON/OFF depending on the steering wheel angle and the vehi-
cle speed, when the headlamp LOW/HIGH lights, and the shift position is at any ranges except P.

Bending lamp supplies efficient light distribution for turning intersection and driving on the curves.

When turning to the left (right), bending lamp left (right) turn ON/OFF while driving forward or backward.

HEADLAMP AIMING CONTROL (AUTO)

System DescriptionBKS002BA
The height sensor is located on the right side of the rear suspension member. With the lighting switch in the
1ST or 2ND position, the height sensor detects vehicle height change by sensing the displacement of the sus-
pension arm. And the height sensor transmits a corresponding signal to the headlamp aiming motors. The sig-
nal drives the headlamp aiming motors, which adjusts the low beam reflector of each headlamp to an angle
appropriate for the vehicle height.
The aiming motor drive signal level retains when the following conditions are not met.

When the stopped vehicle changes the height and keeps it for more than 10 seconds, the height sensor
outputs a aiming motor drive signal. And height sensor keeps signal voltage to headlamp aiming motor.
Upon reception of the aiming motor drive signal, both headlamp aiming motors cause the low beam reflec-
tors to move to the position commanded by the signal.

When the vehicle is running (excluded when accelerating/decelerating), the height sensor transmits aim-
ing motor drive signal to headlamp aiming motors at the predetermined intervals. The voltage level of
every signal input is maintained unchanged until the next signal is input.
Upon reception of the aiming motor drive signal, both headlamp aiming motors cause the low beam reflec-
tors to move to the position commanded by the signal.

When the vehicle is accelerating or decelerating, the height sensor keeps the same aiming motor drive
signal voltage level rather than changing it, so that the low beam reflectors of both headlamps do not
operate.
When the lighting switch is turned OFF position, the height sensor retains the aiming motor drive signal level
at that moment and stops transmitting the signal.
