COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
CHASSIS ELECTRICAL54A-49
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Check the fuel gauge circuit.
(1) Disconnect D-13 fuel gauge unit connector.
(2) Connect a test lamp (12 V − 3.4 W) via test
harness (MB991219) between the wiring harness
connector terminals 1 and 2.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
Q: Does the test lamp illuminate?
YES :
Go to Step 4.
NO : . Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Connector check: Combination meter
connector C-06, fuel gauge unit connector D-13
Q: Is combination meter connector C-04, fuel gauge
unit connector D-13 in good condition?
YES :
Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged
component(s).
STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between

SERVICE SPECIFICATIONSM1542000300332
TROUBLESHOOTING M1542000701281
Features the headlamp automatic shutdown function
to avoid battery drain when the headlamps are left
on. The main features are as follows:
•Extinguishes automatically in three minutes if the
ignition switch is turned off with the lighting switch
on.
•Extinguishes in one second if the driver's door is
opened within that 3-minute period.
•If the headlamps are turned on with the ignition
switch off, the headlamps and tail lamps will
extinguish in three minutes after the driver's door
is opened or closed.
The headlamps are controlled by the Smart Wiring
System (SWS). For troubleshooting, refer to
respective Groups below.
•Not using SWS monitor: GROUP 54B, SWS

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
HEADLAMP AIMING
M1542000900538
PRE-AIMING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect for badly rusted or faulty headlamp
assemblies.
2. These conditions must be corrected before a
satisfactory adjustment can be made.
3. Inspect tyre inflation, and adjust if it is necessary.
4. If the fuel tank is not full, place a weight in luggage
room of the vehicle to simulate weight of a full
tank (0.8 kg per litre).
5. There should be no other load in the vehicle other
than driver or substituted weight of approximately
75 kg placed in driver's position.
6. Thoroughly clean the headlamp lenses.7. Place the vehicle on a level floor, perpendicular to
a flat screen 10 m away from the bulb
centre-marks on the headlamp lens.
8. Rock vehicle sideways to allow vehicle to assume
its normal position.
9. Bounce the front suspension through three (3)
oscillations by applying the body weight to hood
or bumper.
10.Four lines of adhesive tape (or equivalent
markings) are required on screen or wall:
(1) Position a vertical tape or mark so that it is
aligned with the vehicle centre line.
(2) Measure the distance from the centre-marks
on the headlamp lens to the floor. Transfer the
measurement to the screen. Horizontal tape or
mark on the screen is for reference of vertical
adjustment. Item Standard value Limit

Dimmer interior lamp control function
The room lamp off is delayed by ETACS-ECU. The
lamps off delay time vary according to the conditions.
The control details are as follows. The lamp delay off
Yes/NO and delay time can be set with the settings
(adjustment function). for adjustment methods and
adjustment details (post-adjustment operations).
•ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
•Not using SWS monitor: GROUP 54B,
P.54B-423.
•The room lamp lights up if the ignition switch is at
the "LOCK" (OFF) position and either of the
doors are opened (either of the door switches:
ON). At this time, if all doors are closed (all door
switches: OFF) then the lamp will gradually dim
down to lamps off in about 15 seconds.
NOTE: When the lamps are dimmed and the ignition
switch is turned ON or if the door is locked, then
the dimming operations stop and the lamps are
turned OFF.
•When the ignition switch is at the ON position and
one of the doors are opened (one of the door
switches: ON) then the room lamp will light up. At
this time, if all doors are closed (all door switches:
OFF) then the lamps will dim out.
•When the ignition key is pulled out the room lamp
lights up and then will dim out in 15 seconds. The
lamp will dim out if the ignition key is inserted
again and the door is locked while the timer is
activated.
The room lamp is controlled by the Smart Wiring
System (SWS). For troubleshooting, refer to
respective Groups below.•Not using SWS monitor: GROUP 54B, SWS

Interior lamp automatic shutdown
function system>
The interior lamp automatic shutdown function, dims
out the room lamp and other interior lamps by
activating the keep relay built-in the ETACS-ECU
when the ignition switch is OFF and the
multi-purpose fuse loaded signals built-in the
ETACS-ECU is ON and 30 minutes passes. The
lamps lights back up if the ignition switch is turned to
the ON position or either of the doors is opened
(either of the door switches: ON). The function

GENERAL INFORMATIONM1543000100319
Rear Defogger operation
The defogger relay turns ON if the defogger switch
built-in the A/C-ECU is turned ON when the ignition
switch is in the "ON" position. When the defogger
relay turns ON, power is supplied to the defogger
and the defogger is activated. The defogger comes
with a timer function that causes the defogger switch
to automatically turn OFF in about 11 minutes after
the defogger switch is turned ON.
