Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000005885856
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap the seal cutter to insert it (1).
• In areas where the Tool is difficult to use, lightly tap to slide it (2).
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket application surface and the mating surface using suitable tool.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
liquid gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign material.
3. Attach the liquid gasket tube to the Tool. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply theliquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside
the holes. If specified in the procedure, it should also be
applied outside the holes.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling the engine with engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.

ENGINE UNIT
• Remove oil and dust on the crankshaft pin and surfaces of eachbearing completely.
• Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place
it in the crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
• Install the connecting rod beari ngs to the connecting rod and con-
necting rod bearing cap, and tighten the connecting rod bolts to the
specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft with plastigage installed.
• Remove the connecting rod bear ing cap and bearings. Measure
the plastigage width using the scale on the plastigage bag.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the repair limit is the same as that described in “Method
of Measurement”.
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
• Install the main bearings to the cylinder block and main bearing cap. Measure the main bearing inside diameter with the bearing
cap bolts tightened to the specified torque. Refer to EM-83, "
Disas-
sembly and Assembly".
(Oil clearance) = (Inside diameter of main bearing) – (Crankshaft
journal diameter)
• If measured value exceeds the repair limit, select main bearings referring to the main bearing inside diame-
ter and crankshaft journal diameter, so that the oil clearance satisfies the standard. Refer to EM-101, "
How
to Select Piston and Bearing".
Method of Using Plastigage
• Remove oil and dust on the crankshaft journal and surfaces of
each bearing completely.
• Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
• Install the main bearings to the cylinder block and main bearing cap, and tighten the main bearing bolts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft with plastigage installed.
• Remove bearing cap and bearings. Measure plastigage width using the scale on the plastigage bag.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the repair limit
is the same as that descri bed in “Method of Measurement”.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005867512
Control of the headlamp system operation is dependent upon t he position of the combination switch (lighting
and turn signal switch). When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) is placed in the 2nd posi-
tion, the BCM (body control module) receives input requesting the headlamps and park lamps to illuminate.
This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) via the CAN
communication lines. The CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp LH high,
headlamp RH high and headlamp low relay coils. When energiz ed, these relays direct power to the respective
headlamps, which then illuminate.

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS >
HEADLAMP
A Xenon type headlamp is adapted to the low beam headlamps. Xenon bulbs do not use a filament. Instead,
they produce light when a high voltage current is pa ssed between two tungsten electrodes through a mixture
of Xenon (an inert gas) and certain other metal halides. In addition to added lighting power, electronic control
of the power supply gives the headlamps stable quality and tone color. Following are some of the advantages
of the Xenon type headlamp.
• The light produced by the headlamps is a white color comparable to sunlight that is easy on the eyes.
• Light output is nearly double that of halogen headlamps, affording increased area of illumination.
• The light features a high relative spectral distribution at wavelengths to which the human eye is most sensi- tive. This means that even in the rain, more light is reflected back from the road surface toward the vehicle,
for added visibility.
• Power consumption is approximately 25 percent less than halogen headlamps, reducing battery load.
HIGH BEAM OPERATION/FLASH-TO-PASS OPERATION
With the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) in the 2ND position and placed in HIGH position,
the BCM receives input requesting the headlamp high beams to illuminate. The flash to pass feature can be
used any time and also sends a signal to the BCM. This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R via the CAN
communication lines. The CPU of the combination meter c ontrols the ON/OFF status off the HIGH BEAM indi-
cator. The CPU of the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp LH high and RH high relay coils which supplies power
to the high beam headlamps.
The combination meter receives a high beam request signal (ON) via the CAN communication lines and turns
the high beam indicator lamp ON.
