CUSTOMER INTERVIEW
Interview the customer if possible, to determine the conditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer's comments; refer to GW-9, "
Diagnostic Worksheet" . This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.
The customer may not be able to provide a detailed description or the location of the noise. Attempt to
obtain all the facts and conditions that exist when the noise occurs (or does not occur).
If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, be sure to diagnose and repair the noise that the customer
is concerned about. This can be accomplished by test driving the vehicle with the customer.
After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so the customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same language when
defining the noise.
Squeak —(Like tennis shoes on a clean floor)
Squeak characteristics include the light contact/fast movement/brought on by road conditions/hard sur-
faces=higher pitch noise/softer surfaces=lower pitch noises/edge to surface=chirping
Creak—(Like walking on an old wooden floor)
Creak characteristics include firm contact/slow movement/twisting with a rotational movement/pitch
dependent on materials/often brought on by activity.
Rattle—(Like shaking a baby rattle)
Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contact/vibration or similar movement/loose parts/missing
clip or fastener/incorrect clearance.
Knock —(Like a knock on a door)
Knock characteristics include hollow sounding/sometimes repeating/often brought on by driver action.
Tick—(Like a clock second hand)
Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of light materials/loose components/can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.

Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS003NY
System DescriptionNKS003NZ
The control of the headlamp system operation is dependent upon the position of the combination switch (light-
ing switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 2ND position, the BCM (body control module) receives
input signal requesting the headlamps (and tail lamps) illuminate. This input signal is communicated to the
IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN communication lines. The CPU
(central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp high and headlamp low relay coils.
These relays, when energized, direct power to the respective headlamps, which then illuminate.

General Information for Xenon Headlamp Trouble DiagnosisNKS003P2
In most cases, malfunction of xenon headlamp - "does not illuminate", "flickers" or "dark" - is caused by a mal-
functioning xenon bulb. A HID control unit or lamp housing, however, may be a cause of malfunction. Be sure
to perform trouble diagnosis following the steps described below.
Caution:NKS003P3
Installation or removal of connector must be done with lighting switch OFF.
Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal or remove power fuse.
When the lamp is illuminated (when lighting switch is ON), never touch harness, HID control unit, inside of
lamp, or lamp metal parts.
To check illumination, temporarily install lamp in vehicle. Be sure to connect power at vehicle side connec-
tor.
If error can be traced directly to electrical system, first check for items such as blown fuses and fusible
links, broken wires or loose connectors, dislocated terminals, and improper connections.
Never work with wet hands.
Using a tester for HID control unit circuit trouble diagnosis is prohibited.
Disassembling HID control unit or harnesses (bulb socket harness, ECM harness) is prohibited.
Immediately after illumination, light intensity and color will fluctuate, but there is nothing wrong.
When bulb has come to end of its life, brightness will drop significantly, it will flash repeatedly, or light color
will turn reddish.

System DescriptionNKS003QF
AFS control unit controls AFS and headlamp auto aiming.
The following signals are input to AFS control unit via CAN communication:
Steering angle sensor signal
A/T position indicator signal
Low beam status signal
Vehicle speed signal
Engine speed signal
Other signals are input as follows:
AFS switch signal from AFS switch connected to AFS control unit
Height sensor signal from height sensor connected to AFS control unit
Swivel position sensor signal from swivel position sensor built into both right and left swivel actuators con-
nected to AFS control unit
In response to the state of control, AFS control unit switches commands of AFS off indicator signal sent to uni-
fied meter and A/C amp. via CAN communication; and then turns on/off or blinks AFS off indicator lamp built in
the combination meter.
AFS (ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM)
AFS increases viewability of cornering direction by changing light axis automatically to the direction of travel
with low beam headlamps during vehicle's cornering.
AFS switch allows AFS function to be stopped.
AFS control unit determines the current vehicle conditions by each received signals, and sends commands to
the low beam headlamp to swivel. With the headlamps (HIGH/LOW) illuminated, the AFS switch on, engine
running and the A/T select lever in any position but range P or range R, the low beam headlamps are opera-
tive by AFS control unit commands.
As the steering wheel is turned to the left (right), the left (right) low beam headlamp will automatically swivel
angle in accordance with the steering angle and vehicle speed, and stop the operation when the steering
wheel is returned to the straight-ahead position.
Swivel operation allows drive signal to be sent to the swivel actuator on the side that AFS control unit is actu-
ated. Step motor built in swivel actuator adjusts low beam projector of headlamp to swivel angle that matches
drive signal. Swivel position sensor built in swivel actuator detects swivel angle and transmits a swivel position
sensor signal to the AFS control unit. AFS control unit monitors if swivel operation is performed normally via
swivel position sensor signal.
Swivel operation
*1: Included high beam illuminated.
*2: The swivel operates when running at approx. 25 km/h (15.5 MPH). When swivel operation is started, it works on until vehicle
stops.
*3: The low beam headlamps perform small movements when AFS control unit detects start of the engine. This is normal with ini-
tialization of swivel actuator by AFS control unit.Low beam

HEADLAMP AUTO AIMING
Headlamp auto aiming control automatically corrects vertical deviation of light axis that is brought by the
change of vehicle height with changing number of passenger and laden weight, and relieves dazzle to oncom-
ing vehicles.
AFS control unit determines the current vehicle conditions by each received signals, and sends commands to
the low beam headlamps to auto aiming. With the headlamps (HIGH/LOW) illuminated and engine running,
the low beam headlamps are operative by AFS control unit commands.
The height sensor is located on the left side of the rear suspension member and detects rear vehicle height
change by sensing the displacement of the rear suspension arm. And transmits a height sensor signal to the
AFS control unit.
With reference to the rear vehicle height under the empty condition, light axis of low beam with low rear vehi-
cle height is relatively higher than that with the empty condition. AFS control unit switches drive signal corrects
height of low beam axis to maintain height of light axis with empty condition.
Light axis of low beam with high rear vehicle height is relatively lower than that with empty condition. Light axis
of low beam with empty condition is set as upper limit of headlamp auto aiming control operation. Control to
correct deviation is not performed when light axis of low beam gets relatively higher than that with empty con-
dition. Timing of control is switched in accordance with driving conditions.
Headlamp auto aiming operation
*1: Included high beam illuminated
*2: Control timing of drive signal is switched by vehicle speed and accelerating/decelerating vehicle.
*3: Control is performed without regard to the condition of AFS switch. Headlamp auto aiming control function cannot be cancelled.

through front combination lamp RH terminal 21.
Swivel position sensor detects swivel angle during ignition switch ON, and transmits swivel position sensor
signals to the AFS control unit:
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, power is supplied
to front combination lamp RH terminal 15
through AFS control unit terminal 4.
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, swivel position sensor input signal is supplied
to AFS control unit terminal 9
through front combination lamp RH terminal 14.
Ground is supplied
to front combination lamp RH terminal 19
through AFS control unit terminal 2.
The low beam headlamp RH starts to swivel to the right.
The swivel motor driving signals are blocked and the swivel motion stops when the steering angle reaches
approximately more than 80 degrees (predetermined). The low beam headlamp will not swivel any further no
matter how further right. As the steering wheel is turned back to the left, the swivel motor driving signals (both
1-phase and 2-phase) will be reversed, causing low beam headlamp RH to start swiveling to the left. When
steering angle becomes smaller than predetermined value, the low beam headlamp is set in the straight-
ahead position, swivel motor driving signals are blocked and low beam headlamps stop swiveling.
AFS OFF INDICATOR OPERATION
In response to the state of control, AFS control unit switches com-
mands of AFS off indicator signal sent to unified meter and A/C amp.
via CAN communication; and then turns on/off or blinks AFS off indi-
cator lamp built in the combination meter depending on the following
condition.
Bulb check operation
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off after illuminating for one sec-
ond as a bulb check for AFS off indicator lamp when turn ignition
switch ON is detected.
NOTE:
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off without a lapse of one sec-
ond when start of the engine is detected.
AFS switch operation
AFS off indicator lamp is illuminated while AFS switch is OFF.
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off while AFS switch is ON.
System warning operation
AFS off indicator lamp illuminates at intervals of approximately one second when AFS control unit detects
any specific DTC (diagnosis trouble code), or when unified meter and A/C amp. cannot receive AFS off
indicator signals.
NOTE:
Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits a command to combination meter to blink AFS off indicator lamp
when they cannot receive AFS off indicator signal.
SWIVEL ACTUATOR INITIALIZATION
AFS control unit performs swivel operation to initialize swivel actuator when start of the engine is detected.
Straight-ahead position of low beam headlamps is adjusted by turning low beam headlamps to outside vehicle
with specified swivel angle after turning it to the center of vehicle and making sure that it reaches the stopper.
Swivel actuator initialization shall be performed every time when start of the engine is detected.
