INTERIOR ROOM LAMP CONTROL SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001601375
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001601376
OUTLINE
• Interior room lamps* are controlled by the interior room lamp timer control function of the BCM.
*Front room/map lamps, personal lamp 2nd row, personal lamp 3rd row (when lamp switch is in DOOR posi-
tion) and puddle lamps.
• Cargo lamp is controlled by the cargo lamp control function of the BCM.
• Step lamps* are controlled by the step lamp control function of the BCM. *Front step lamps, rear step lamps and foot lamps.
The timer control functions of the BCM activate based on inputs from the remote keyless entry receiver, the
key cylinder lock/unlock switch, the door switc hes or the key switch and ignition knob switch.
ROOM LAMP TIMER OPERATION
When the interior room lamp switch is in the DOOR position and when all conditions below are met, the BCM
begins timer control (maximum 30 seconds) for interior room lamp ON/OFF.
• When the front door LH is unlocked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or
front door lock assembly (key cylinder switch)].
• When a door opens → closes and the Intelligent Key is not inserted in the ignition switch.
Timer control is cancelled under the following conditions.
• When the front door LH is locked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or
front door lock assembly (key cylinder switch)].
• A door is opened (door switch turns ON).
• Ignition switch is turned ON.
Interior lamp operational settings can be c hanged with the function setting of CONSULT-III.

INTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
If an interior lamp is left ON and does not turn OFF even when the doors are closed, the BCM turns off power
to the interior lamps automatically to save the batte ry 30 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
The BCM controls power and ground to all interior lamps.
After the battery saver system turns the la mps OFF, the lamps will illuminate again when
• a signal is received from an Intelligent Key or main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or when the
front door LH lock assembly (key cylinder switch) is locked or unlocked
• a door is opened or closed
• the Intelligent Key is removed from or inserted into the ignition switch.
The Interior lamp battery saver control time peri od can be changed with the function setting of CONSULT-III.

ILLUMINATION CONTROL SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001601379
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001601380
The illumination lamps operation is dependent upon the posit ion of the lighting switch (combination switch).
When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST or 2ND posit ion (or if the auto light system is activated) the BCM
(body control module) receives input requesting the park ing lamps to illuminate. This input is communicated to
the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) via the CAN communication lines. The CPU
(central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay coil. When energized, this relay directs
power to the parking and illumination lamps, which then illuminate.
BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the lighting switch (combination switch) is in t he 1ST or 2ND position and the ignition switch is turned
from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery saver control feat ure is activated. Under this condition, the illumination
lamps remain illuminated for 30 minutes unless the light ing switch position is changed. If the lighting switch
position is changed, then the illumination lamps are turned off after a 30 second delay. When the lighting
switch is turned from OFF to 1ST or 2ND position (or if auto light system is activated) after illumination lamps
have been turned off by the battery saver control, the illumination lamps illuminate again.
