DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SY STEM : System DiagramINFOID:0000000009463547
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYST EM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463548
System Description
The daytime light system is equipped with a daytime light control that activates the daytime lights within the
front fog lamp assembly when the engine is operating. If the parking brake is applied, the daytime lights will
turn OFF. The daytime lights will turn ON when the parking brake is released.
OPERATION
The BCM monitors inputs from the parking brake swit ch and the combination switch (lighting and turn signal
switch) to determine when to operate the daytime light s ystem. The BCM sends a daytime light request to the
IPDM E/R via the CAN communication lines. The IPDM E/ R grounds the daytime light relay which in turn, pro-
vides power to the daytime lights.
FRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEM
FRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEM : System DiagramINFOID:0000000009463549
FRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463550
The front fog lamps are activated with the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch). The lighting
switch signal to the BCM is monitored with the BCM combination switch reading function. When the fog lamps
are turned ON with the lighting switch, the BCM sends a front fog lamp request signal via CAN communication
lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R grounds the front fog lamp relay coil to activate the front fog lamps.
FRONT FOG LAMP OPERATION
When the lighting switch is in front fog lamp ON position and also in 1st or 2nd position or AUTO position
(headlamp is ON), the BCM detects FR FOG ON and the HEAD LAMP 1, 2 ON or the AUTO LIGHT ON. The
BCM sends a front fog lamp request ON signal via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM
E/R then turns ON the front fog lamp re lay sending power to the front fog lamps.

COMBINATION METER SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
The following meter functions can be checked during Combination Meter Self-Diagnosis Mode:
• Pointer sweep of speedometer, tachometer and gauges.
• Illumination of all LCD segments and color patterns for meter displays.
• Illumination of all lamps/LEDs that are controlled by the combination meter (regardless of switch status).
STARTING COMBINATION METER SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
NOTE:
• Check combination meter power supply and ground circuits if self-diagnosis mode does not start. Refer to
MWI-58, "COMBINATION METER : Diagnosis Procedure"
. Replace combination meter if power supply and
ground circuits are found to be normal and self-diagnosis mode does not start. Refer to MWI-82, "Removal
and Installation".
• Combination meter self-diagnosis mode will function with t he ignition switch in ON. Combination meter self-
diagnosis mode will exit upon turning the ignition switch to OFF.
How to Initiate Self-Diagnosis Mode
1. Press and hold the trip reset switch while turning the ignition switch ON. After 2 seconds release trip reset switch, then press the trip reset switch 3 times within 7 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON.
2. When the diagnosis function is activated, the meter illuminates all of the following:
• Warning lights/indicators.
• Meter assembly.
• Information display color bars red, green, blue and white (1).
• Odometer, trip A/B odometers and CVT indicator LCD display segments (2).
3. Pressing and holding the trip reset switch performs the pointer sweep test.
CONSULT Function (METER/M&A)INFOID:0000000009461693
CAUTION:
After disconnecting the CONSULT vehicle interface (VI) from the data link connector, the ignition must
be cycled OFF → ON (for at least 5 seconds) → OFF. If this step is not performed, the BCM may not go
to ”sleep mode”, potentially causing a di scharged battery and no-start condition.

1. Check repair history of the SRS. If no repairs have been made, perform SRC-15, "SRS Operation
Check". If repairs have been made, GO TO step 2.
2. Erase "SELF-DIAG [PAST]" after repair. Refer to SRC-17, "SRS Final Check"
.

DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Connect CONSULT.
2. Confirm that zero point reset of OCS is complete.
3. If no DTCs are detected on “SELF- DIAG RESULTS [CURRENT]”, repair of SRS is completed. Go to step
4.
If any DTCs are detected on “SEL F-DIAG RESULTS [CURRENT]”, t he malfunction has not been repaired
completely or another malfunction is being detected. Perform SRS Operation Check again. Refer to
SRC-15, "SRS Operation Check"
.
4. Touch “ERASE”. NOTE:
Touching “ERASE” will clear the SRS memory of the malfunction (“SELF-DIAG [PAST]”). If “SELF-
DIAG [PAST]” is not erased, User Mode may s how the previous system malfunction even if the
malfunction has been repaired completely.
5. Check that no malfunction is detected in “SELF-DIAG [PAST]”.
6. Exit Diagnosis Mode and disconnect the CONSULT.
7. Perform SRS Operation Check. Refer to SRC-15, "SRS Operation Check"
