INTERIOR ROOM LAMP BATTERY SA VER SYSTEM : System Description
INFOID:0000000006216053
OUTLINE
 Interior room lamp battery saver is controlled by BCM.
 BCM turns applicable lamps OFF depending on the vehicle condition. This function prevents the battery
from over-discharging if the driver neglects turning OFF the any lamps.
Applicable lamps
 Map lamp
 Personal lamp
 Foot lamp
 Luggage room lamp
 Automatic back door close switch illumination
 Step lamp
 Puddle lamp
 Vanity mirror lamp
INTERIOR ROOM LAMP BATTERY SAVER FUNCTION
 When the ignition switch is turned to a position other than ON, BCM operates the timer for a period of time to
cut the interior room lamp power supply.
 BCM restart the timer when any of the following signals changes while operating the timer.
- Push-button ignition switch status
- Door switch signal (ALL)
- Door lock/unlock signal (remote keyless entry re ceiver, each door request switch, door lock and unlock
switch, door key cylinder switch)
 BCM provides the interior room lamp power supply continuously when the ignition switch position is ON.
 When welcome light function operates.

SYSTEM
Each function of interior room lamp battery saver can be set by CONSULT-III. Refer to INL-15, "BATTERY
SAVER : CONSULT-III Function (BCM - BATTERY SAVER)".

ILLUMINATION CONTROL SYS TEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006216055
OUTLINE
Each illumination lamp is controlled by each function of BCM, IPDM E/R and combination meter.
Control by BCM Combination switch reading function
 Headlamp control function
Control by IPDM E/R Relay control function
Control by combination meter Meter illumination control function (Refer to MWI-16, "METER ILLUMINATION CONTROL : System Descrip-
tion".)
ILLUMINATION CONTROL
 BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
 BCM transmits position light request signal to IPDM E/R and combination meter according to tail lamp ON
condition.
Tail lamp ON condition- Lighting switch 1ST
- Lighting switch 2ND
- Lighting switch AUTO, and the auto light function ON judgment
- Lighting switch AUTO, with the front fog lamp switch ON and the ignition switch ON
 IPDM E/R turns the integrated tail lamp relay ON acco rding to position light request signal. It provides the
power supply to each illumination lamp.
 Combination meter enters in the nighttime mode accord ing to position light request signal. Under the night-
time mode the combination meter controls the illu minance by controlling each illumination lamp (ground
side).

Control by BCM Auto light system
 Auto light adjustment system
AUTO LIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
Description
 BCM supplies voltage to the optical sensor when the ignition switch is turned ON or ACC.
 Optical sensor converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the optical sensor signal to BCM.
 BCM judges dimming/brightening of combination meter and display according to brightness outside the vehi- cle, when ignition switch is ON.
 BCM transmits dimmer signal to combination meter via CAN communication, according to auto light adjust- ment conditions. Dimmer signal is also transmitted to AV control unit.
NOTE:
As to dimming/brightening timing, the sensitivity depends on settings. The settings can be changed with CON-
SULT-III. Refer to EXL-23, "
HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III F unction (BCM - HEAD LAMP)".
Auto Light Adjustment Timing Table
When the ignition switch is ON, the illumination of co mbination meter and display switches dimming/brighten-
ing in the following condition.
BCM switches the illumination of combination me ter and display to dimming when outside brightening
obtained from the optical sensor signal is 1250 lx or le ss for 3 seconds or more. And BCM switches the illumi-
nation of combination meter and display to brightening when outside brightening from the optical sensor signal
is 2500 lx or more for 5 seconds or more.
JMLIA0967GB
Combination meter and display Dimming/brightening timing
Dimming Outside brightness is 1250 lx or less for 3 seconds or more.
Brightening Outside brightness is 2500 lx or more for 5 seconds or more.

whenever ignition switch OFF → ON.
 The number is fixed to 39 until the self-diagnosis results are erased if it is over 39.
