With more passenger(s) or luggage in the vehicle, the vehicle position differs from that in such vehicle state with one
person and no load in the vehicle and angle of the headlight optical axis varies accordingly. This system automatically
adjusts the varied angle to maintain the optical axis properly.
Front and rear height sensors
Front height sensor (1) is installed to the front suspension frame (2) respectively and connected to the lower arm (4)
with the link (3). Also rear height sensor is installed to the rear floor center cross member (5) respectively and
connected to the rear axle (6) with the link (3). Each height sensor converts vertical movement of the lower arm into
the resistance value and outputs the detected change in the vehicle position as a voltage signal to the headlight
leveling control module.
Headlight leveling control module
Headlight leveling control module is installed at the inside of the glove box. It uses the headlight ON signal from the
lighting switch, vehicle speed signal from BCM and vehicle position signal from height sensors to calculate the angle
of the headlight optical axis to be corrected. Then it adjusts the optical axis angle of headlight based on the calculated
angle value by driving the headlight leveling actuator so that proper headlight aiming is obtained. Also, when any
abnormality is detected in the system, the headlight leveling control module makes the headlight leveling warning light
in the combination meter light up to warn the driver of an abnormality in the system.

Headlight leveling control module has a fail-safe function which operates as follows.

light switch holds ON position, front fog
lights turn ON automatically when headlight
switch is tuned to HEADLIGHT position (low
or high beams) or SMALL position again.
Check for continuity between terminals at each switch
position. If check result is not as specified, replace
switch.

Without initialization of the headlight auto leveling
system, it is not possible to obtain its proper function.
Also, if the headlight auto leveling system is not
initialized after replacing the headlight leveling control
module, the headlight leveling warning light in the
combination meter flashes.
1) Observe the following instructions.
• Park vehicle on level ground.
• Adjust air pressure of all tires to the specified
value respectively.
• Bounce vehicle body up and down by hand to
stabilize suspension.
2) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
3) Perform “Headlight Leveling Warning Light Check”.
4) Connect service wire (2) to terminals of diagnosis
connector (1).
5) Perform Steps a) through b) described blow within
20 seconds after Step 4).
a) Turn lighting switch (3) to “HEAD” position and
then turn lighting switch to OFF position.
b) Repeat Step a) 2 times.
6) Confirm that headlight leveling warning light flashes
3 times and turns off, which indicates that system
initialization was completed properly. If it does not
turn off after flashing 3 times, it means initialization
was not successful. In such case, turn off ignition
switch and perform Steps 1) to 6) again.Auto-On Headlight Sensor Inspection (If
Equipped)
