OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
With the lighting switch in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if the auto light system is activated), the BCM receives
input signal requesting the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps to illuminate. This input signal is
communicated to the IPDM E/R through the CAN communication lines. The CPU located in the IPDM E/R
controls the tail lamp relay coil, which when energized, directs power.

ILLUMINATIONPFP:27545
System DescriptionNKS002Z2
Control of illumination lamps operation is dependent upon position of lighting switch (combination switch).
When lighting switch is placed in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if auto light system is activated), BCM (body con-
trol module) receives input signal requesting illumination lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communi-
cated to IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) through the CAN communication lines.
The CPU (central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls tail lamp relay coil. This relay, when ener-
gized, directs power to illumination lamps, which then illuminate.
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse (No. 71, located in IPDM E/R)

to tail lamp relay, located in IPDM E/R, and

to CPU located in IPDM E/R.
Power is also supplied at all times

through 50A fusible link (letter M, located in fuse, fusible link and relay box)

to BCM terminal 55,

through 15A fuse [No. 22 located in fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM terminal 42,

through 15A fuse (No. 78, located in IPDM E/R)

to CPU located in IPDM E/R,

through 10A fuse [No. 19 located in fuse block (J/B)]

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 21, and

to combination meter terminal 8.
With ignition switch in ON or START position, power is supplied

to ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R, from battery direct,

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

to BCM terminal 38,

through 10A fuse [No. 12, located in fuse block (J/B)]

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 22,

to combination meter terminal 7.
With ignition switch in ACC or ON position, power is supplied

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

to combination meter terminal 4 and

to BCM terminal 11.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminals 49 and 52

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminals 29 and 30, and

to combination meter terminals 5, 6, and 15

through grounds M35, M45, and M85,

to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 60

through grounds E21, E50, and E51.
ILLUMINATION OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
With lighting switch in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if auto light system is activated), BCM receives input signal
requesting illumination lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communicated to IPDM E/R through the CAN
communication lines. The CPU located in the IPDM E/R controls tail lamp relay coil, which, when energized,
directs power

Precautions for Liquid GasketNBS003IV
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Apply liquid gasket to the liquid gasket application surface. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL
PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS" .

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mating component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten after mounting bolts and nuts the installation.

After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill engine oil and engine coolant.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within the range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
NOTE:
When checking the engine oil level, insert oil level gauge with its
tip aligned with oil level gauge guide on cylinder head. (In figure,
air cleaner case and air duct are removed.)
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE

Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.

If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following areas:

Oil pans (lower and upper)

Oil pan drain plug

Oil pressure switch

Oil filter

Oil filter bracket (AWD models)

Oil cooler

Water pump cover

Chain tensioner cover

Intake valve timing control cover and intake valve timing control solenoid valve

Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover

Mating surface between front timing chain case and rear timing chain case

Mating surface between rear timing chain case and cylinder head

Mating surface between rear timing chain case and cylinder block.

Mating surface between rear timing chain case and oil pan (upper)

OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:

Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Oil pressure check should be done in “Parking position”.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure sensor, and remove oil pressure sensor using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.
4. Install the oil pressure gauge (SST) and hose (SST).
5. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load. NOTE:
When the engine oil temperature is low, the engine oil pressure becomes high.
Engine oil pressure [Engine oil temperature at 80 °C (176 °F)]
If difference is extreme, check engine oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.
7. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
