DESCRIPTIONPFP:00000
OutlineEKS00BLG
The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system automatically maintains a selected distance from the vehicle
ahead according to that vehicle's speed, or at the set speed, if the road ahead is clear.
The ICC function has two cruise control modes and brake assist (with preview function). The ICC system may
AUTO-CANCEL for various reasons, for example, when the windshield wipers are operating.
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the same speed as other vehicles, can be maintained without the
constant need to adjust the operating speed as with a conventional cruise control system.
The system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following another vehicle in the same
lane and direction.
If the distance sensor detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce speed so that the vehicle
ahead can be followed at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the throttle and applies the brakes (up to 25% of vehicle braking power) if
necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approximately 120 m (390 ft) ahead.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.
CONVENTIONAL (FIXED SPEED) CRUISE CONTROL MODE
Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode is cruising at preset speeds.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operation instructions.
BRAKE ASSIST (WITH PREVIEW FUNCTION)
When the force applied to brake pedal exceeds a certain level, the brake assist is activated and generates a
greater braking force than that of a conventional brake booster, even with light pedal force.
When the preview function identifies the need to apply the sudden brake by sensing the vehicle ahead in the
same lane and the distance and relative speed from it, it applies the brake pre-pressure before driver
depresses the brake pedal and improves brake response by reducing its free play.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.

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.

Revision: November 2009 2006 QX56
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid bumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE (FRONT AND REAR)
Overhead console noises are often caused by the console panel clips not being engaged correctly. Most of
these incidents are repaired by pushing up on the console at the clip locations until the clips engage.
In addition look for:
1. Loose harness or harness connectors.
2. Front console map/reading lamp lense loose.
3. Loose screws at console attachment points.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

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
