2006 INFINITI QX56 headlamp

BCS-4
BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE)
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
NOTE:
Headlamp has a dual system switch.
4. Example operation: (When lighting switch 1st position turned ON)

When lighting switch 1st position is turned ON, contact in combination switch turns ON. At this time if
OUTPUT 4 transistor is activated, BCM detects that voltage changes in INPUT 5.

When OUTPUT 4 transistor is ON, BCM detects that voltage changes in INPUT 5, and judges lighting
switch 1st position is ON. Then BCM sends tail lamp ON signal to IPDM E/R using CAN communica-
tion.

When OUTPUT 4 transistor is activated again, BCM detects that voltage changes in INPUT 5 and rec-
ognizes that lighting switch 1st position is continuously ON.

BCM is activated with low current consumption mode.

CAN communication is not active.

When CAN communication operation is detected, it switches to CAN communication status.

When a state of the following switches changes, it switches to CAN communication state:
–Ignition switch
–Key switch (insert)
–Hazard switch
–Main door lock/unlock switch
–Front door switch (LH, RH)
–Rear door switch (LH, RH)
–Back latch (door ajar switch)
–Glass hatch ajar switch
–Combination switch (passing, lighting switch 1st position, front fog lamp)
–Keyfob (lock/unlock signal)
–Front door lock assembly LH (key cylinder switch)

When control performed only by BCM is required by switch, it shifts to CAN communication inactive
mode.

Status of combination switch reading function is changed.

CLEARANCE AND SURFACE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove the front grille. Refer to EI-17, "FRONT GRILLE" .
2. Remove the hood lock assembly and adjust the height by rotating the bumper rubber until the hood clear- ance of hood and fender becomes 1 mm (0.04 in) lower than fitting standard dimension.
3. Temporarily tighten the hood lock, and position it by engaging it with the hood striker. Check the lock and striker for looseness, and tighten the lock mounting bolt to the specified torque.
4. Adjust the clearance and surface height of hood and fender according to the fitting standard dimension by rotating right and left bumper rubbers.
CAUTION:
Adjust right/left gap between hood and each part to the following specification.
5. Install the front grille. Refer to EI-17, "
FRONT GRILLE" .
HOOD LOCK ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove the front grille. Refer to EI-17, "FRONT GRILLE" .
2. Move the hood lock to the left or right so that striker center is vertically aligned with hood lock center (when viewed from vehicle front).
3. Make sure the secondary latch is properly engaged with the sec- ondary striker with hood's own weight by dropping it from
approx. 200 mm (7.87 in) height or by pressing it lightly approx.
3 kg (29 N, 7lb).
CAUTION:
Do not drop the hood from 300 mm (11.81 in) height or
higher.
4. After adjusting hood lock, tighten the lock bolts.
5. Install the front grille. Refer to EI-17, "
FRONT GRILLE" .
Removal and Installation of Hood AssemblyEIS004Q8
1. Support the hood striker with proper material to prevent it from
falling.
WARNING:
Body injury may occur if no supporting rod is holding the
hood open when removing the damper stay.
2. Remove the hinge nuts from the hood to remove the hood assembly.
CAUTION:
Operate with two workers, because of its heavy weight.
Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Hood and headlamp (B–B) : Less than 2.0 mm

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Panic Alarm Operation
When key switch is OFF (when ignition key is not inserted in key cylinder), remote keyless entry system turns
on and off horn and headlamp intermittently with input of PANIC ALARM signal from keyfob.
The alarm automatically turns off after 25 seconds or when BCM receives any signal from keyfob.
Keyless Power Window Down (Open) Operation
When keyfob unlock switch is turned ON with ignition switch OFF, and the switch is detected to be ON contin-
uously for more than 1 second, the driver's door and passenger's door power windows are simultaneously
opened.
Power window is operated to open and the operation continues as long as the keyfob unlock switch is
pressed.
