DAYTIME LIGHT OPERATION
With the engine running, the lighting switch in the OFF or 1ST position and parking brake released, power is
supplied

through daytime light relay terminal 1

to combination meter terminal 10

through daytime light relay terminal 3

to clearance lamp RH and LH terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to combination meter terminals 5, 6 and 15

through grounds M35, M45 and M85

to clearance lamp RH and LH terminal 3

through grounds E21, E50 and E51.
With power and grounds supplied, the front fog lamps illuminate.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-3, "COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION" .
AUTO LIGHT OPERATION
For auto light operation, refer to LT- 5 4 , "System Description" in “AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM”.
CAN Communication System DescriptionAKS007N1
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.

When outside brightness is darker than prescribed level, input is supplied

to BCM (body control module) terminal 14

from optical sensor terminal 2.
The headlamps will then illuminate. For a description of headlamp operation, refer to LT- 5 4 , "
System Descrip-
tion" .
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-3, "COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION" .
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the AUTO position, and the ignition switch is turned from
ON or ACC to OFF, and one of the front door is opened, the battery saver control feature is activated.
Under this condition, the headlamp remain illuminated for 5mimutes, then the headlamp are turned off.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.
DELAY TIMER FUNCTION
When ignition switch ON and ACC are OFF while auto light switch is ON, BCM turn on/off headlamp. In delay
timer function, auto timer sensor power source is OFF and BCM is not turned on/off by auto sensor signal.

When the states ignition switch ON or ACC is ON and output judgment by auto light function is headlamp
ON turn to ignition switch ON or ACC are OFF and front door switch (driver side), front door switch (pas-
senger side) is ON, output judgment by auto light function should be headlamp ON for 5 minutes by tamer.
After time out, output judgment by auto light function should be headlamp OFF.

When the state is front door switch (driver side), front door switch (passenger side), rear door switch LH,
rear door switch RH or back door switch is turner to ON from OFF 45 seconds or 5 minutes while timer is
counting, timer stops, and re−start counting for 5 minutes, then auto light function judges output as head-
lamp ON. After time out, auto light function judges output as headlamp OFF.

When the states front door witch (driver side), front door switch (passenger side), rear door switch LH,
rear door switch RH or back door switch is ON turns to front door witch (driver side), front door switch
(passenger side), rear door switch LH, rear door switch RH or back door switch are OFF 45seconds or
5minute while is counting, Timer stops, and re−start counting for 45 seconds, then auto light function
judges output as head lamp ON. After timer out, auto light function judges output as head lamp OFF.

When the state is ignition switch ON or ACC is ON or auto light switch OFF while timer is counting, timer
stops counting and BCM turns on/off lamps according to headlamp function, front fog lamp function, auto
light function and headlamp battery save function.
Delay timer control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.

to ignition relay [located in IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room)]

through 15A fuse [No. 1, located in fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM (body control module) terminal 38.
When the ignition switch is in ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM (body control module) terminal 11.

Fog Lamp Operation
The fog lamp switch is built into the combination switch. The lighting switch must be in the 2ND position or
AUTO position (LOW beam is ON) and the fog lamp switch must be ON for fog lamp operation.
With the fog lamp switch in the ON position, the CPU of the IPDM E/R grounds the coil side of the fog lamp
relay. The fog lamp relay then directs power

through IPDM E/R terminal 37

to front fog lamp LH terminal 1

through IPDM E/R terminal 36

to front fog lamp RH terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to front fog lamp LH terminal 2

through grounds E21, E50 and E51, and

to front fog lamp RH terminal 2

through grounds E21, E50 and E51.
With power and grounds supplied, the front fog lamps illuminate.

OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
vehicle, etc.ItemReference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge, including the spare, at least once a month
and always prior to a long distance trips. Adjust to the specified pressure if
necessary. Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.—
Wheel nutsWhen checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any
loose nuts. Tighten if necessary.—
WindshieldClean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every
six months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary.—
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 12,000 km (7,500 miles).MA-34
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle pulls to either side while driving on a straight and level road, or if
you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel align-
ment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds, wheel
balancing may be needed.MA-32
, FSU-6
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly. —
Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the
trunk lid and back hatch. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lubri-
cate if necessary. Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from
opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lubri-
cation frequently.MA-37
LampsMake sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and
other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check head-
lamp aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. —
ItemReference page
Warning lamps and
chimesMake sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Windshield wiper and
washerCheck that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak.—
Windshield defrosterCheck that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner.—
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play. Be sure to check for changes in the steer-
ing condition, such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)—
SeatsCheck seat position controls such as seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc. to
make sure they operate smoothly and that all latches lock securely in every
position. Check that the head restrains move up and down smoothly and that
the locks (if equipped) hold securely in all latched positions. Check that the
latches lock securely for folding-down rear seatbacks.—
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters
and retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely.
Check the belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.MA-38
Accelerator pedalCheck the pedal for smooth operation and make sure the pedal does not catch
or require uneven effort. Keep the floor mats away from the pedal.—
BrakesCheck that the brake does not pull the vehicle to one side when applied. —
Brake pedal and
boosterCheck the pedal for smooth operation and make sure it has the proper dis-
tance under it when depressed fully. Check the brake booster function. Be
sure to keep the floor mats away from the pedal.BR-6
