System DiagramINFOID:0000000009463863
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463864
OUTLINE
• Front room/map lamps and personal lamps rear are controll ed by the room lamp timer control function of the
BCM when lamp switch is in the DOOR position.
• Front step lamps are controlled by step lamp control function of BCM.
• Trunk room lamp is controlled by trunk lamp control function of BCM.
• Push-button ignition switch illumination is controlled by the push-button ignition switch illumination control
function of BCM.
• Interior room lamps are illuminated by the welcome light function of Intelligent Key system. Refer to DLK-32,
"WELCOME LIGHT FUNCTION : System Description".
ROOM LAMP TIMER OPERATION
When the interior room lamp switch is in the DOOR position and when all conditions below are met, the BCM
begins timer control (maximum 30 seconds ) for interior room lamp ON/OFF.
• When the front door LH is unlocked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch or
front door lock assembly LH (key cylinder switch)].
• When a door opens → closes.
Timer control is cancelled under the following conditions:
• When the front door LH is locked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch or front door lock assembly LH (key cylinder switch)].
• A door is opened (door switch turns ON).
• Ignition switch is turned ON.
INTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
If an interior lamp is left ON and does not turn OF F even when the doors are closed, the BCM turns off power
to the interior lamps automatically to save the batte ry 15 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF.

< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
ILLUMINATION CONTROL SYSTEM
• The BCM (body control module) receives the parking lamp request signal from the combination switch (light-
ing and turn signal switch) to turn the lights on.
• The BCM sends the parking lamp request signal to t he IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module
engine room) via CAN communication.
• IPDM E/R receives the parking lamp request signal from the BCM to activate the tail lamp relay and provide power to the illumination system.
BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) is in the 1st or 2nd position and the ignition
switch is set from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery save r control feature is activated. Under this condition, the
illumination system remains on for 15 minutes unless the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch)
position is changed. If the combination switch (light ing and turn signal switch) position is changed, then the
illumination system is turned off after a 30 second delay . When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal
switch) is turned from OFF to 1st or 2nd position (or if auto light system is activated) after illumination system
has been turned off by the battery saver control, the illumination lights illuminate again.

AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test mode, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
• Front wiper (LO, HI)
• Front fog lamps
• Parking lamps
• Side marker lamps
• Tail lamps
• License plate lamps
• Daytime running lamps
• Headlamps (LO, HI)
• A/C compressor
• Cooling fans (LO, HI)
Operation Procedure
CAUTION:
Do not start the engine.
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield before hand.
NOTE:
• If auto active test mode cannot be actuated, check door switch system. Refer to DLK-100,
"Component Function Check".
• When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn ignition switch OFF.
1. Close the hood and lift the wiper arms from the windshield. (Prevent windshield damage due to wiper
operation)
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON, and within 20 seconds, press the front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Afte r that the horn sounds once, and the auto active test
starts.
5. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
Inspection in Auto Active Test Mode
When auto active test mode is actuated, the following operation sequence is repeated 3 times.
*: Outputs duty ratio of 50% for 5 seconds → duty ratio of 100% for 5 seconds on the cooling fan control module.
