nal 62 changes between 0V (door open) → 12V (door closed). The BCM determines that conditions for inte-
rior room lamp and map lamp operation are met and turns the interior room lamp ON for 30 seconds.
Timer control is canceled under the following conditions.

ON for 30 seconds.
Key is in ignition key cylinder (key switch ON), or turned ignition knob switch,
Power is supplied

through key switch and ignition knob switch terminal 4

to BCM terminal 37

through key switch and ignition knob switch terminal 2

to Intelligent Key unit terminal 27.
When key is removed from key switch (key switch OFF), power supply to BCM terminal 37 is terminated. And
turned ignition knob switch, power supply to intelligent key unit is terminated. BCM detects that key has been
removed, determines that interior room lamp and map lamp timer conditions are met, and turns the interior
room lamp and map lamp ON for 30 seconds.
When driver door opens → closes, and the key is not inserted in the key switch (or not turned ignition knob
switch), BCM terminal 62 changes between 0V (door open) → 12V (door closed). The determines that condi-
tions for interior room lamp and map lamp operation are met and turns the interior room lamp ON for 30 sec-
onds.
Timer control is canceled under the following conditions.

Driver door is locked [when locked keyfob or power window main switch (door lock and unlock switch).
