TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
2. CAN COMMUNICATION INSPECTION
With CONSULT-II
1. With CONSULT-II self-diagnosis, check “CAN COMM CIRCUIT”.
OK or NG
OK >> Refer to ACS-38, "DTC 20 CAN COMM CIRCUIT" .
NG >> Replace combination meter and erase DTC. Refer to DI-25, "
Removal and Installation of Combi-
nation Meter" . Perform ICC system running test, and then perform self-diagnosis of ICC system
again.
Symptom 6: Driving Force Is HuntingEKS007XX
1. CHECK ECM
1. Perform self-diagnosis of ECM.
OK or NG
OK >> Refer to ACS-56, "Symptom 7: The ICC System Frequently Cannot Detect the Vehicle Ahead/The
Detection Zone is Short" .
NG >> After repairing applicable parts, erase DTC. Perform ICC system running test, and then perform
self-diagnosis of ICC system again.
Symptom 7: The ICC System Frequently Cannot Detect the Vehicle Ahead/The
Detection Zone is Short
EKS007XY
The detection function may become unstable in the following cases:

When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is small or not clean enough to reflect the laser.

When driving a road with extremely sharp corners.

When the laser cannot detect the reflector of the vehicle ahead as the vehicle ahead is passing a hill or
passing the peak.
1. VISUAL CHECK
1. Check ICC sensor body window for contamination and foreign materials.
OK or NG
OK >> If any contamination or foreign materials are found, remove them. Then perform ICC system run-
ning test.
NG >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK FUNCTION
1. After performing laser beam aiming adjustment, perform ICC system running test. Check that preceding
vehicle detection performance has been improved.
OK or NG
OK >> Inspection End.
NG >>

Replace ICC sensor and perform laser beam aiming adjustment. Refer to ACS-59, "ICC Sen-
sor" .

After performing above, perform ICC system running test, and then perform self-diagnosis of
ICC system again.
Symptom 8: The System Does Not Detect the Vehicle Ahead at AllEKS007XZ
1. VISUAL CHECK
1. With ignition switch turned ON (engine not started), check that all indicator lamps in ICC system display
are continuously lit. (Check for a missing segment in preceding vehicle detection display.)
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check combination meter. Refer to DI-17, "
How to Proceed With Trouble Diagnosis" .

Revision: August 20072004 QX56

When welding HSS panels, use spot welding whenever possi-
ble in order to minimize weakening surrounding areas due to
heat.
If spot welding is impossible, use M.I.G. welding. Do not use
gas (torch) welding because it is inferior in welding strength.

The spot weld on HSS panels is harder than that of an ordi-
nary steel panel.
Therefore, when cutting spot welds on a HSS panel, use a
low speed high torque drill (1,000 to 1,200 rpm) to increase
drill bit durability and facilitate the operation.

SP150 HSS panels with a tensile strength of 785 to 981 N/
mm
2 (80 to 100 kg/mm2 , 114 to 142 klb/sq in), used as rein-
forcement in the door guard beams, is too strong to repair.
When these HSS parts are damaged, the outer panels also
sustain substantial damage; therefore, the assembly parts
must be replaced.
2. Precautions in spot welding HSS
This work should be performed under standard working condi-
tions. Always note the following when spot welding HSS:

The electrode tip diameter must be sized properly according
to the metal thickness.

The panel surfaces must fit flush to each other, leaving no
gaps.

to combination meter terminal 8, and

through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to BCM terminal 70.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R, and

through 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 24, and

through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)

to BCM terminal 38.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 67 and

to combination meter terminal 17

through grounds M57, M61 and M79, and

to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 59

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
Low Beam Operation
With the lighting switch in 2ND position, the BCM receives input requesting the headlamps to illuminate. This
input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU of the IPDM E/R con-
trols the headlamp low relay coil. When energized, this relay directs power

through 15A fuse (No. 41, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 54

to front combination lamp RH terminal 5, and

through 15A fuse (No. 40, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 52

to front combination lamp LH terminal 5.
Ground is supplied

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminal 1

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
With power and ground supplied, low beam headlamps illuminate.
High Beam Operation/Flash-to-Pass Operation
With the lighting switch in 2ND position and placed in HIGH or PASS position, the BCM receives input request-
ing the headlamp high beams to illuminate. This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN com-
munication lines. The CPU of the combination meter controls the ON/OFF status of the HIGH BEAM indicator.
The CPU of the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp high relay coil. When energized, this relay directs power

through 10A fuse (No. 34, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 56

to front combination lamp RH terminal 6, and

through 10A fuse (No. 35, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 55

to front combination lamp LH terminal 6.
Ground is supplied

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminal 2

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
With power and ground supplied, the high beam headlamps illuminate.
XENON HEADLAMP
Xenon type headlamp is adopted to the low beam headlamps. Xenon bulbs do not use a filament. Instead,
they produce light when a high voltage current is passed between two tungsten electrodes through a mixture
of xenon (an inert gas) and certain other metal halides. In addition to added lighting power, electronic control
of the power supply gives the headlamps stable quality and tone color.
Following are some of the many advantages of the xenon type headlamp.
