GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-6
FOG LAMP
.
FOG LAMP
The fog lamps will illuminate only when the fog lamp
switch is operated while the low-beam headlamps
are on.
The fog lamps will be switched off when any of the
following conditions is met. The fog lamps will also
be switched off automatically by headlamp automatic
shutdown function.
When the high-beam headlamps are switched
on, the fog lamps will be switched off. If the
low-beam headlamps are switched on again, the
fog lamps will illuminate again.
When the headlamp switch is turned off while the
tail lamps are on or the tail lamps and headlamps
are off, the fog lamps will be switched off. If the
low-beam headlamps are switched on again, the
fog lamps will not illuminate again.
.
FOG LAMP INDICATOR
At the same time that the fog lamps are illuminated,
the ETACS-ECU sends a signal to illuminate the fog
lamp indicator via the CAN bus line. The combination
meter receives the transmitted signal and turns the
fog lamp indicator on and off.
INTERIOR LAMP
ETACS-ECU makes it possible to force operation of
all ON and OFF lamp switches in the overhead con-
sole (the dome lamp, reading lamp, cargo area lamp,
rear personal lamps, front door lamps, and front foot
lamps). This function is assigned higher priority than
the controls for the interior lamp switch that are per-
formed when the doors are in certain positions.
When the lamps are forced on, the illumination
level is 100% as all interior lamps are switched on
(the dome lamp, reading lamp, cargo area lamp,
rear personal lamps, front door lamps, and front
foot lamps). Even when all lamps are forced on,
the interior lamp automatic shutoff function is
active.
When the lamps are forced off, all interior lamps
are immediately switched off (the dome lamp,
reading lamp, cargo area lamp, rear personal
lamps, front door lamps, and front foot lamps).When the interior lamp switch is at DOOR position,
the ETACS-ECU controls the interior lamps as fol-
lows:
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
off, the interior lamps up to a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
dims a luminance of 65 percent, and goes off 30
seconds later. However, if the ignition switch is
turned ON or if a door is locked while the interior
lamps is dimming, the dome lamp will go off at
that point.
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
ON, the interior lamps up at a luminance of 100
percent. When all doors are closed, the interior
lamps go off.
When the ignition key is removed with all doors
closed, the interior lamps up at a luminance of
100 percent, and goes off 30 seconds later. How-
ever, if the ignition key is inserted again or if a
door is locked while the interior lamps is lighting,
the interior lamps will go off at that point.
To check keyless entry operations more easily,
the interior lamps will flash twice when doors are
locked. When doors are unlocked, the interior
lamps up at a luminance of 100 percent, and
goes off 15 seconds later.
INTERIOR LAMP AUTOMATIC
SHUTDOUN FUNCTION
Illuminated interior lamps such as the front dome
lamp, etc. (all lamps using the dome lamp fuse as the
power supply) will automatically go off in the follow-
ing conditions to prevent the battery from discharging
as a result of forgetting to turn off the lamps or
incomplete closing of the door.
When the ignition switch is turned off and more
than 30 minutes pass by with the interior lamp
illuminated, the interior lamps will go off automati-
cally.
When the ignition switch is turned off and one of
the door switches remains open for 30 minutes
continuously, the interior lamps will go off auto-
matically.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE INTERIOR LAMPM1549021800236
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80The following ECUs affect the functions and control
of the interior lamps.
Interior lamp control function
The ETACS-ECU controls the interior lamps by turn-
ing them on and off in the following way:
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
off, the interior lamps up to a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
dims at a luminance of 65 percent, and goes off
30 seconds later. However if the ignition switch is
turned ON or if a door is locked while the interior
lamps is dimming, the dome lamp will go off at
that point.
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
ON, the interior lamps up at a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
go off.
When the ignition key is removed with all doors
closed, the interior lamps up at a luminance of
100 percent, and goes off 30 seconds later. How-
ever if the ignition key is inserted again or if a
door is locked while the interior lamps is lighting,
the interior lamps will go off at that point.
To check keyless entry operations more easily,
the interior lamps is flashed once when the doors
are locked. When the doors are unlocked, the
interior lamps at a luminance of 100 percent, and
go off 15 seconds later.
NOTE: The dimmer function can be customised on
vehicles equipped with a multi center display (middle
grade type). Refer to P.54B-486.
NOTE: The dotted lines indicate that lighting mode
when the ignition switch is turned ON, door is locked,
or any door is opened during the timer illumination
time. FUNCTION CONTROL ECU
