OUTLINE
Parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps ar e controlled by combination switch reading function and
headlamp control function of BCM, and re lay control function of IPDM E/R.
PARKING, LICENSE PLATE, SIDE MARKER AND TAIL LAMPS OPERATION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
BCM transmits the position light request signal to IPDM E/R and the combination meter via CAN communi-
cation according to the ON/OFF condition of the pa rking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps.
Parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps 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 and tu rns the parking, license plate, side marker and tail
lamps ON according to the position light request signal.
Combination meter turns the tail lamp indicator lamp ON according to the position light request signal.

CAN COMMUNICATION CONTROL
When CAN communication with BCM is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After CAN communi-
cation recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.

OUTLINE
Front fog lamp is controlled by combination switch r eading function and front fog lamp control function of BCM,
and relay control function of IPDM E/R.
FRONT FOG LAMP OPERATION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
BCM transmits the front fog lights request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication according to the front
fog lamp ON condition.
Front fog lamp ON condition- Front fog lamp switch ON and any of the followings. (except for the high beam ON)
Lighting switch 2ND
Lighting switch AUTO (auto light function ON judgment)
IPDM E/R turns the integrated front fog lamp relay ON, and turns the front fog lamp ON according to the front
fog lights request signal.

EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVE R SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006213909
OUTLINE
Exterior lamp battery saver system is c ontrolled by each function of BCM and IPDM E/R.
Control by BCM
- Combination switch reading function
- Headlamp control function
- Exterior lamp battery saver function
Control by IPDM E/R
- Relay control function
BCM turns the exterior lamp* OFF after a period of ti me to prevent the battery from over-discharge when the
ignition switch is turned OFF with the exterior lamp ON.
*: Headlamp (LO/HI), parking lamp, tail lamp, side marker lamp, license plate lamp and front fog lamp
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER ACTIVATION
BCM activates the timer and turns the exterior lamp OFF 5 minutes after the ignition switch is turned from ON
→ OFF with the exterior lamps ON.
NOTE:
Headlamp control function turns the exterior lamps ON normally when the ignition switch is turned ACC or
the engine started (both before and after the exte rior lamp battery saver is turned OFF).
The timer starts at the time that the lighting switch is turned from OFF → 1ST or 2ND with the exterior lamp
OFF.
