2013 SSANGYONG KORANDO headlamp

3) Operating Process
(1) Headlamp (high/low beam) operation process
The headlamp is usually operated by the multifunction switch or by the REKES or smart key through the
BCM.
The BCM controls the headlamp and tail lamp according to the signal from the AUTO light sensor
through LIN communication when the multifunction switch is in "AUTO" position.
Headlamp - low beam
Headlamp - high beam
DRL (Day Time Running Light)
DRL is the function to turn on the high beam and tail lamp without any intervention from the light
switch. DRL turns off the lamps when turning off the light switch. This is an additional safety device to
prevent the accident.

(3) Auto light (LIN)
The auto light sensor unit is installed to the back side of the ECM mirror located upper center of the
windshield, and detects the illuminance change. The BCM communicates with the auto light sensor
when the ignition is turned on, and turns on or off the tail lamp and headlamp automatically according to
the signals from the sensor when the multifunction switch is set to AUTO light.
The BCM communicates with the rain sensor even if the multifunction switch is in tail lamp.

Control by BCM
The rain sensor & AUTO light module communicates with BCM with IGN ON. When the AUTO light
switch is in the AUTO position, the BCM controls the tail lamp and headlamp according to the LIN
communication data.

(5) Fog lamp
The fog lamp is operated by the fog lamp switch only when the headlamp (tail lamp) is operating.
The front and rear fog lamps go off when turning the ignition switch or headlamp (tail lamp) switch to the
"OFF" position.

2. LAYOUT
1) Exterior Layout
Liquid and suction pipe
The high/low-pressure A/C refrigerant flows
through this pipe. It is fitted with the refrigerant
pressure sensor.
Electric fan
It cools down the A/C condenser to speed up the
compression for the refrigerant in the condenser.
Refrigerant pressure sensor
It is mounted to the latter part of the right
headlamp. It converts the A/C refrigerant pressure
to voltage value and sends it to the engine ECU.
A/C compressor
It is installed to the left side of the engine
assembly, compresses the low-temperature and
low-pressure coolant and converts it to the high-
temperature and high-pressure coolant. Then, it
sends the coolant to the A/C condenser.
