CAN Communication System DescriptionNKS003RM
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

1. SYSTEM CHECK
Referring to table below, check the system to which malfunctioning switch belongs.
>> Check the system to which malfunctioning switch belongs, and then GO TO 2.
2. SYSTEM CHECK
With CONSULT-II
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
1. Connect CONSULT-II, and select “COMB SW” on “SELECT
TEST ITEM” screen.
2. Select “DATA MONITOR”.
3. Select “START”, and confirm that other switches in malfunction-
ing system operate normally.
Example: When the HI BEAM switch is malfunctioning, confirm
that “TURN RH”, “HEAD LAMP 1” and “TAIL LAMP SW” in Sys-
tem 5, to which the HI BEAM switch belongs, turn ON-OFF nor-
mally.
Without CONSULT-II

PARKING, LICENSE PLATE AND TAIL LAMPSPFP:26550
Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS003SH
System DescriptionNKS003SI
The control of the parking, license plate and tail lamp operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting
switch (combination switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST position, the BCM (body control
module) receives input signal requesting the parking, license plate and tail lamps to illuminate. This input sig-
nal 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 tail lamp relay
coil. This relay, when energized, directs power to parking, license plate and tail lamps, which then illuminate.

OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
With the lighting switch in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if the auto light system is activated), the BCM receives
input signal requesting the parking, license plate and tail lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communi-
cated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU located in the IPDM E/R controls the
tail lamp relay coil, which when energized, directs power

EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 1ST (or 2ND) position, and ignition switch is turned
from ON or ACC to OFF, battery saver control feature is activated.
Under this condition, parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes, then
the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps are turned off.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.

ROOM LAMP TIMER OPERATION
BCM controls applicable lamps to illuminate for 15 seconds (can be set maximum 30 seconds) by timer oper-
ation under following conditions. BCM also controls applicable lamps to brighten for 1 second (can be set max-
imum 5 seconds) when turned ON, or to dim for 3 seconds (can be set maximum 5 seconds) when turned
OFF. (Timer operating time and dimming/brightening time can be changed with CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 2 8 3 ,
"WORK SUPPORT (INT LAMP)" .) This control operates as follows.
Applicable lamps

Room lamp system: map lamp, foot lamp (driver side and passenger side) and personal lamp (rear LH
and rear RH).
BCM controls room lamp timer operation under following condition.

Condition 1: Door lock state changes.*
BCM judges as the door lock is unlocked under either case below.
–The Intelligent Key unit sends door lock/unlock trunk open request signal (driver side unlock or passenger
side unlock) to BCM through CAN communication line by unlock operation of intelligent key, outside key
antenna and front door request switch (driver side) or outside key antenna and front door request switch
(passenger side).
–Key cylinder switch state (unlock) signal is sent to BCM through power window serial link when front door
lock assembly (driver side) (key cylinder switch) is unlocked (ON) by power window main switch unlock
operation.
And fulfills all the conditions below.
–The engine switch (push switch) is OFF.
–All the doors are closed.
*: This setting can be changed by CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 2 8 3 , "
WORK SUPPORT (INT LAMP)" .

Condition 2: Any door switch state changes.*
The BCM terminal value of operated door switch is changed when any door is opened and then closed.
From that BCM judges as the door is opened and then closed.
And fulfills all the conditions below.
–The engine switch (push switch) is OFF.
–All the doors are closed.
*: This setting can be changed by CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 2 8 3 , "
WORK SUPPORT (INT LAMP)" .

Condition 3: Engine switch (push switch) state changes.*
The Intelligent Key unit judges as the engine switch (push switch) is OFF and sends push-button ignition
switch (push switch) signal to PDU (power distribution unit) when push-button ignition switch (push
switch) turned OFF. Then PDU (power distribution unit) turns OFF, IGN power supply and ACC power
supply.
And fulfills the conditions below.
–All the doors are closed.
*:This setting can be changed by CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 2 8 3 , "

When engine coolant overflows air relief hole on heater hose,
install air relief plug with new O-ring.
5. Install radiator cap.
6. Warm up engine until opening thermostat. Standard for warming-up time is approximately 10 minutes at
3,000 rpm.

Make sure thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat engine.
7. Stop the engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).

Cool down using fan to reduce the time.

If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
8. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
9. Repeat steps 4 through 7 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no longer
drops.
10. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
11. Warm up the engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running engine from idle up to
3,000 rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between “COOL” and “WARM”.

Sound may be noticeable at heater unit.
12. Repeat step 11 three times.
13. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating step 4 through 7 until engine coolant level no
longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plugs on cylinder block are removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-129,
"ASSEMBLY" .
2. Remove air relief plug on heater hose.
3. Fill radiator with water until water spills from the air relief hole, then close air relief plug. Fill radiator and
reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.Reservoir tank engine coolant capacity
