FRONT FOG LAMP
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
FRONT FOG LAMPPFP:26150
Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS003R2
System DescriptionNKS003R3
The control of the fog lamps is dependent upon the position of the combination switch (lighting switch). The
lighting switch must be in the 2ND position or AUTO position (headlamp is ON) for front fog lamp operation.
When the lighting switch is placed in fog lamp position, the BCM (body control module) receives input signal
requesting the fog lamps to illuminate. When the headlamps are illuminated, this input signal is communicated
to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN communication lines. The
CPU (central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls the front fog lamp relay coil. When activated,
this relay directs power to the front fog lamps.

FRONT FOG LAMP
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
FOG LAMP OPERATION
The fog lamp switch is built in combination switch. The lighting switch must be in 2ND position or AUTO posi-
tion (headlamp is ON) and fog lamp switch must be ON for fog lamp operation.
With the fog lamp switch in the ON position, the CPU located in IPDM E/R grounds coil side of the fog lamp
relay. Fog lamp relay then directs power

through IPDM E/R terminal 37

to front fog lamp RH terminal 1,

through IPDM E/R terminal 36

to front fog lamp LH terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to front fog lamp RH terminal 2

through grounds E22 and E43,

to front fog lamp LH terminal 2

through grounds E22 and E43.
With power and grounds supplied, the front fog lamps illuminate.
The unified meter and A/C amp. that received the front fog lamp request signal by BCM across the CAN com-
munication makes a front fog lamp indicator lamp turn on in combination meter.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-3, "COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION" .
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 2ND position (ON), and the ignition switch is turned
from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery saver control function is activated.
Under this condition, the headlamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes, then the headlamps are turned off.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.
CAN Communication System DescriptionNKS003R4
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitNKS003R5

Bulb ReplacementNKS003RI
1. Turn lighting switch OFF.
2. Remove fender protector (front). Refer to EI-20, "
FENDER PROTECTOR" .
3. Turn bulb (1) counterclockwise and unlock it.
4. Disconnect connector (2), and remove bulb (1).
CAUTION:

Never touch the glass of bulb directly by hand. Keep grease
and other oily matters away from it. Never touch bulb by
hand while it is lit or right after being turned off.

Never leave bulb out of fog lamp reflector for a long time
because dust, moisture smoke, etc. may affect the perfor-
mance of fog lamp. When replacing bulb, be sure to replace
it with new one.
Removal and InstallationNKS003RJ
REMOVAL
1. Remove front bumper grille (1). Refer to EI-13, "Removal and
Installation of Front Bumper Grille" .
2. Remove screws (2) and remove front fog lamp (3) from vehicle.

PARKING, LICENSE PLATE AND TAIL LAMPSPFP:26550
Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS003SH
System DescriptionNKS003SI
The control of the parking, license plate and tail lamp operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting
switch (combination switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST position, the BCM (body control
module) receives input signal requesting the parking, license plate and tail lamps to illuminate. This input sig-
nal is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN
communication lines. The CPU (central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay
coil. This relay, when energized, directs power to parking, license plate and tail lamps, which then illuminate.
