DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationINFOID:0000000001328291
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328292
Daytime light system turns ON daytime light lamps while driving. Daytime light lamps are not turned ON if
engine is activated with parking brake ON. Release parki ng brake to turn ON daytime light lamps. The lamps
turn OFF when the lighting switch is in the 2ND pos ition or AUTO position (headlamp is ON) and when the
lighting switch is in the PASSING position (daytime light lamps are not turned OFF only by parking brake
itself).
The parking brake signal and engine run or stop signal ar e sent to BCM (body control module) by CAN com-
munication line, and control daytime light system.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328307
Automatically turns ON/OFF parking lamps and the headlamps in accordance with ambient light.
Timing for when the lamps turn ON/OFF can be selected using four modes.
OUTLINE
The auto light control system has an optical s ensor inside it that detects outside brightness.
When the lighting switch is in AUTO position, it automatically turns ON/OFF the parking lamps and the head-
lamps in accordance with the ambient li ght. Sensitivity can be adjusted in four steps. For the details of the set-
ting, Refer to LT-55, "
Preliminary Check".
Optical sensor control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-III or display.
Optical sensor, power is supplied
 from BCM (body control module) terminal 17
 to optical sensor terminal 1.
Optical sensor, ground is supplied
 to optical sensor terminal 3
 through BCM terminal 18.
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, and
When outside brightness is darker than prescribed level, input is supplied
 from optical sensor terminal 2
 to BCM terminal 14

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM
The headlamps will then illuminate. For a description of headlamp operation, Refer to LT- 5 , "System Descrip-
tion".
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-4, "System Description".
DELAY TIMER FUNCTION
Delay timer function carries out a function that BCM ac tivates the timer and controls lights out of headlamps by
door switch signal and lightning switch signal when turn ing the Ignition switch OFF while it is ON and head-
lamps are ON by the auto light function.
Timer types are a 5 minute timer and a 45 second timer
 When opening any door (door switch is ON), the 5 mi nute timer starts and then headlamps go out 5 minutes
later
 When all the doors are closed (from door switch ON to OFF), the 45 second timer starts and then headlamps go out 45 seconds later. If any door is opened (door switch ON) while the 45 second timer is in operation, the
5 minute timer starts again
 The timer stops when turning on the ignition switch or turning off the auto light switch under the above condi-
tions.
Delay timer control mode can be changed by the f unction setting of CONSULT-III or display.
CAN Communication System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328308
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 s peed 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 CA N 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 UnitINFOID:0000000001328309
Refer to LAN-43, "CAN System Specification Chart".
Major Component and FunctionsINFOID:0000000001328310
Components Functions
BCM  Turns on/off circuits of tail light and headlamp according to signals from light sensor, lighting switch (AUTO),
driver door switch, passenger door switch, rear door switch, and ignition switch (ON, OFF).
Optical sensor  Converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage, and sends it to BCM. (Detects brightness of 800 to 2,500 lux)
