HEADLAMP
HEADLAMP
PFP:26010
System DescriptionEKS003CD
DESCRIPTION
The headlamps are controlled by the lighting switch which is built into the combination switch.
Power is supplied at all times
lto lighting switch terminal 8
lthrough 15A fuse (No. 40, located in the fuse and fusible link box), and
lto lighting switch terminal 5
lthrough 15A fuse (No. 41, located in the fuse and fusible link box).
LOW BEAM OPERATION
When the lighting switch is turned to the 2ND position and placed in LOW (“B”) position, power is supplied
lfrom lighting switch terminal 10
lto terminal 3 of the headlamp LH, and
lfrom lighting switch terminal 7
lto terminal 3 of the headlamp RH.
Terminal 2 of each headlamp supplies ground through body grounds E24 and E50.
With power and ground supplied, the low beams will illuminate.
HIGH BEAM OPERATION/FLASH-TO-PASS OPERATION
When the lighting switch is turned to the 2ND position and placed in HIGH (“A”) position or PASS (“C”) posi-
tion, power is supplied
lfrom lighting switch terminal 6
lto terminal 1 of headlamp RH, and
lfrom lighting switch terminal 9
lto terminal 1 of headlamp LH, and
lto combination meter terminal 61 (LHD models) or 50 (RHD models) for the HIGH BEAM indicator.
Ground is supplied to terminal 60 (LHD models) or 49 (RHD models) of the combination meter through body
grounds M27 and M70.
Ground is supplide to terminal 2 of each headlamp through body grounds E24 and E50.
With power and ground supplied, the high beams and the HIGH BEAM indicator illuminate.

Trouble Diagnoses
EKS003CF
Aiming AdjustmentEKS003CG
When performing headlamp aiming adjustment, use an aiming machine, aiming wall screen or headlamp
tester. Aimers should be in good repair, calibrated and operated in accordance with respective operation man-
uals.
If any aimer is not available, aiming adjustment can be done as follows:
For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
lKeep all tires inflated to correct pressures.
lPlace vehicle and tester on one and same flat surface.
lSee that there is no-load in vehicle (coolant, engine oil filled up to correct level and full fuel tank) other
than the driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position).

2. Use adjusting screws to perform aiming adjustment.
lFirst tighten the adjusting screw all the way and then make adjustment by loosening the screw.
If the vehicle front body has been repaired and/or the headlamp assembly has been replaced, check aim-
ing. Use the aiming chart shown in the figure.
lAdjust headlamps so that main axis of light is parallel to cen-
ter line of body and is aligned with point P shown in illustra-
tion.
lFigure to the left shows headlamp aiming pattern for driv-ing
on right side of road; for driving on left side of road, aiming
pattern is reversed.
lDotted lines to point P in illustration show center of head-
lamp.
lBasic illuminating area for adjustment should be within the
range shown at left. Adjust headlamps accordingly.

HEADLAMP - DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM -PFP:26010
System DescriptionEKS003BB
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp system on vehicles for North Europe contains a daytime light unit. The unit activates the follow-
ing whenever the engine is running with the lighting switch in the OFF position:
lLow beam headlamps
lParking, license, tail and illumination lamps
Power is supplied at all times
lthrough 10A fuse (No. 31, located in the fuse and fusible link box)
lto daytime light unit terminal 1 and
lto lighting switch terminal 11.
Power is also supplied at all times
lthrough 15A fuse (No. 41, located in the fuse and fusible link box)
lto daytime light unit terminal 3 and
lto lighting switch terminal 5.
Power is also supplied at all times
lthrough 15A fuse (No. 40, located in the fuse and fusible link box)
lto daytime light unit terminal 2 and
lto lighting switch terminal 8.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
lthrough 10A fuse [No. 13, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
lto daytime light unit terminal 7.
With the ignition switch in the START position, power is supplied
lthrough 10A fuse [No. 7, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
lto daytime light unit terminal 6.
HEADLAMP OPERATION (DAYTIME LIGHT CANCEL OPERATION)
When the lighting switch is turned to the 1st or 2nd position, power is supplied
lthrough lighting switch terminal 12,
lto daytime light unit terminal 11.
Then daytime light will be canceled. And the lighting system operation will be the same as no daytime light
system.
DAYTIME LIGHT OPERATION
With the engine running and the lighting switch in the OFF position, power is supplied
lfrom alternator terminal 3
lto daytime light unit terminal 8,
lthrough daytime light unit terminal 5
lto terminal 3 of headlamp LH,
lthrough daytime light unit terminal 4
lto terminal 3 of headlamp RH and
lthrough daytime light unit terminal 10
lto tail lamp and illumination.
Ground is supplied to terminal 2 of each headlamp through body grounds E24 and E50.
