1. WRITING VEHICLE SPECIFICATION
Perform “WRITE CONFIGURA TION” with CONSULT-III.
When writing saved data>>GO TO 2
When writing manually>>GO TO 3
2. PERFORM “WRITE CONFIG URATION - CONFIG FILE”
Perform “WRITE CONFIGURATION - Config file” with CONSULT-III.
>> WORK END
3. PERFORM “WRITE CONFIGURA TION - MANUAL SELECTION”
For “WRITE CONFIGURATION - Manual selection”, using the following flow chart, identify the correct model
and configuration list.
Confirm and/or change setting value for each item according to the configuration list.
Depending on CONSULT-III software version being used, some or all of the write configuration items shown in
the following configuration lists may be displayed. If an item does not display on the CONSULT-III “WRITE
CONFIGURATION - Manual selection” screen, then it is an auto setting item and it cannot be manually set or
changed.
NOTE:
Confirm vehicle model. Refer to GI-20, "

• BCM (Body Control Module) controls the various electrical components. It inputs the information required to
the control from CAN communication and the signal received from each switch and sensor.
• BCM has combination switch reading function for reading the operation status of combination switches (light,
turn signal, wiper and washer) in addition to a function fo r controlling the operation of various electrical com-
ponents. It also has the signal transmission function as the passed point of signal and the power consump-
tion control function that reduces the power consumption with the ignition switch OFF.
• BCM is equipped with the diagnosis function that perfo rms the diagnosis with CONSULT-III and various set-
tings.

• BCM reads the status of the combination switch (light, turn signal, wiper and washer) and recognizes the
status of each switch.
• BCM is a combination of 5 output terminals (OUTPUT 1 - 5) and 5 input terminals (INPUT 1 - 5). It reads a
maximum of 20 switch status.

COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Description
• BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 10 ms interval normally.
NOTE:
BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 20 ms interval when BCM is controlled at low power con-
sumption control mode.
• BCM operates as follows and judges the status of the combination switch.
- INPUT 1 - 5 outputs the voltage waveforms of 5 systems simultaneously.
- It operates the transistor on OUTPUT side in the following order: OUTPUT 5 → 4 → 3 → 2 → 1.
System OUTPUT 1 OUTPUT 2 OUTPUT 3 OUTPUT 4 OUTPUT 5
INPUT 1 —FR WASHER FR WIPER LOW TURN LH TURN RH
INPUT 2 FR WIPER HI —FR WIPER INT PASSING HEADLAMP 1
INPUT 3 INT VOLUME 1 RR WASHER —HEADLAMP 2 HI BEAM

- The voltage waveform of INPUT corresponding to the
formed circuit changes according to the operation of
the transistor on OUTPUT side if any (1 or more) switches are ON.
- It reads this change of the voltage as the status signal of the combination switch.
Operation Example
In the following operation example, the combination of t he status signals of the combination switch is replaced
as follows: INPUT 1 - 5 to “1 - 5” and OUTPUT 1 - 5 to “A - E”.
Example 1: When a switch (TURN RH switch) is turned ON
• The circuit between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 5 is formed when the TURN RH switch is turned ON.
• BCM detects the combination switch status signal “1 E” when the signal of OUTPUT 5 is input to INPUT 1.
• BCM judges that the TURN RH switch is ON when the signal “1E” is detected.
Example 2: When some switches (turn RH s witch, front wiper LO switch) are turned ON

COMBINATION SWITCH READING SYSTEM
• The circuits between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 5 and between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 3 are formed when the
TURN RH switch and FR WIPER LOW switch are turned ON.
• BCM detects the combination switch status signal “1CE” when the signals of OUTPUT 3 and OUTPUT 5 are input to INPUT 1.
• BCM judges that the TURN RH switch and FR WIPE R LOW switch are ON when the signal “1CE” is
detected.
