FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
HEADLAMP
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001547094
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547095
Control of the headlamp system operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting switch (combination
switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 2nd position, the BCM (body control module) receives input
requesting the headlamps and park lamps to illuminate. Th is input is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelli-
gent power distribution module engine room) via the CA N communication lines. The CPU (central processing
unit) of the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp high and headl amp low relay coils. When energized, these relays
direct power to the respective headlamps, which then illuminate.

XENON HEADLAMP
A Xenon type headlamp is adapted to the low beam headlamps. Xenon bulbs do not use a filament.
Instead,they produce light when a high voltage current is passed between two tungsten electrodes through a
