Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to EXL-33, "Wiring Diagram - Xenon".
1.CHECK HEADLAMP (LO) FUSES
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Check that the following fuses are not blown.
Is the fuse blown?
YES >> Replace the fuse after repairing the affected circuit.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK HEADLAMP (LO) OUTPUT VOLTAGE
CONSULT
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the front combination lamp harness connector E232 or E243 in question.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
4. Select EXTERNAL LAMP of IP DM E/R active test item.
5. With EXTERNAL LAMP ON, check the voltage betw een the combination lamp connector E243 or E232
terminal 1 and ground.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK HEADLAMP (LO) CIRCUIT FOR OPEN
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect IPDM E/R connector E200.
3. Check continuity between the IPDM E/R harness c onnector E200 and the front combination lamp harness
connector E243 or E232.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Replace IPDM E/R. Refer to PCS-32, "Removal and Installation".

OPERATION
Refer to EXL-9, "HEADLAMP SYSTEM : System Description".
PRECAUTIONS FOR TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
• Installation or removal of the connecto r must be done with the lighting switch OFF.
• When the lamp is illuminated (when the lighting switch is ON), do not touch the harness, HID control unit,
inside of the lamp, or the lamp metal parts.
• To check illumination, temporarily install lamp in the vehicle. Be sure to connect power at the vehicle-side
connector.
• If the malfunction can be traced directly to the electrical system, first check for items such as blown fuses
and fusible links, broken wires or loose connectors , pulled-out terminals, and improper connections.
• Do not work with wet hands.
• Using a tester for HID control unit circuit trouble diagnosis is prohibited.
• Disassembling the HID control unit or harnesses (bul b socket harness, ballast harness) is prohibited.
• Immediately after illumination, the light int ensity and color will fluctuate, this is normal.
• When the bulb has reached the end of its lifetime, the br ightness may drop significantly, it may flash repeat-
edly, or the light may turn a reddish color.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000009463587
1.CHECK XENON BULB
Install a known good bulb to the applicable headlamp. Check that the headlamp operates.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Replace the xenon bulb.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK HID CONTROL UNIT
Install a known good HID control unit to the appl icable headlamp. Check that the headlamp operates.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Replace HID control unit.
NO >> Inspection End.
