HEADLAMP SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006213895
OUTLINE
Headlamp is controlled by combination switch r
eading function and headlamp control function of BCM, and
relay control function of IPDM E/R.
HEADLAMP (LO) OPERATION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on with the combination switch reading function.
BCM transmits the low beam request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication according to the head-
lamp (LO) ON condition.
Headlamp (LO) ON condition- Lighting switch 2ND
- Lighting switch AUTO (auto light function ON judgment)
- Lighting switch AUTO, with the front fog la mp switch ON and the ignition switch ON
- Lighting switch PASS
IPDM E/R turns the integrated headlamp low relay ON , and turns the headlamp ON according to the low
beam request signal.
HEADLAMP (HI) OPERATION
BCM transmits the high beam request signal to IPDM E/R and the combination meter via CAN communica- tion according to the headlamp (HI) ON condition.
Headlamp (HI) ON condition
- Lighting switch HI with the lighting switch 2ND or AUTO (auto light function ON judgment)
- Lighting switch PASS
- Lighting switch AUTO, with the front fog lamp swit ch ON, the ignition switch ON and lighting switch HI
Combination meter turns the high beam indicator lamp ON according to the high beam request signal.
IPDM E/R turns the integrated headlamp high relay ON , and turns the headlamp ON according to the high
beam request signal.
HEADLAMP SYSTEM : Fail-safeINFOID:0000000006213896
CAN COMMUNICATION CONTROL
When CAN communication with BCM is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After CAN communi-
cation recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.
If No CAN Communication Is Available With BCM

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM : System Description (For CANADA)INFOID:0000000006218912
OUTLINE
Auto light system is controlled by each function of BCM and IPDM E/R.
Control by BCM- Combination switch reading function
- Headlamp control function
- Auto light function
- Delay timer function
- Wiper linked auto lighting function
- Auto light adjustment system
Control by IPDM E/R
- Relay control function
Auto light system has the auto light function, wiper linked auto lighting function and delay timer function.
- Auto light function automatically turns ON/OFF the exterior lamps* and each illumination automatically,
depending on the outside brightness.
- Wiper linked auto lighting function automatically tu rns ON/OFF the exterior lamps* and each illumination
when the light switch is in the AUTO posit ion, according to a front wiper operation.
- When auto light system turns the exterior lamps ON wit h the ignition switch OFF, delay timer function turns
the exterior lamps OFF, depending on the vehicle condition with the auto light function after a certain period
of time.
*: Headlamp (LO/HI), parking lamp, side marker lamp, tail lamp and front fog lamp (Headlamp HI and front fog
lamp depend on the combination switch condition.)
AUTO LIGHT FUNCTION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on with the combination switch reading function.
BCM supplies voltage to optical sensor when the ignition switch is turned ON or ACC.
Optical sensor converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the optical sensor signal to BCM.
BCM judges outside brightness from the optical sens or signal and judges ON/OFF condition of the exterior
lamp and each illumination according to the outside brightness.
Control part Fail-safe operation
Headlamp Turns ON the headlamp low relay when the ignition switch is turned ON
Turns OFF the headlamp low relay when the ignition switch is turned OFF
Headlamp high relay OFF

AUTO LIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
The auto light adjustment system automatically, dims/bri
ghtens the display and combination meter, according
to brightness outside the vehicle, when lighting switch 1ST or lighting switch 2ND is operated. Refer to INL-11,
"AUTO LIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM : System Description".
DELAY TIMER FUNCTION
BCM turns the exterior lamp OFF depending on the vehicle condition with the auto light function when the igni-
tion switch is turned OFF.
Turns the exterior lamp OFF 5 minutes afte r detecting that any door opens. (Door switch ON).
Turns the exterior lamp OFF a certain period of time* after closing all doors. (Door switch ON →OFF).
Turns the exterior lamp OFF with the igni tion switch ACC or the light switch OFF.
*: The preset time is 45 seconds. The timer operat ing time can be set by CONSULT-III. Refer to EXL-23,
"HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III Function (BCM - HEAD LAMP)".
NOTE:
When any position other than the light switch AUTO is set, the auto light system function switches to the exte-
rior lamp battery saver function.

OUTLINE
Turns the front fog lamp ON as the daytime running light.
Daytime running light is controlled by daytime runni ng light control function and combination switch reading
function of BCM, and relay c ontrol function of IPDM E/R.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT OPERATION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
BCM detects the vehicle condition depending on the following signals.
- Parking brake switch signal (received from combination meter via CAN communication)
BCM transmits the front fog light request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication according to the day-
time running light ON condition.
Daytime running light ON condition- While the engine running with the parking brake released
- Lighting switch OFF
- Lighting switch AUTO (auto light function OFF judgment)
- Passing switch OFF
- Front fog lamp switch OFF
IPDM E/R turns the integrated front fog lamp relay ON and turns the front fog lamp ON according to the front
fog light request signal.

ACTIVE ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006213900
OUTLINE
AFS (ACTIVE ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SY STEM) is controlled by AFS control unit.
AFS has AFS control (swivel control) and the headlamp auto aiming control.
- AFS control swivels the headlamp to the steering direction.
- Headlamp auto aiming control moves the headlamp light axis up/down according to the vehicle height.
AFS (ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM)
AFS Control Description
AFS control unit controls the headlamp (right) only when the steering wheel is turned rightward, and the
headlamp (left) only when the steering wheel is turned leftward.
AFS control unit detects the vehicle condition nec essary for AFS control with the following signals.
- AFS switch signal
- Vehicle speed signal (received from combination meter via CAN communication)
- Steering angle sensor signal (received from steering angle sensor via CAN communication)
- Shift position signal (received from TCM via CAN communication)
- Low beam status signal (received from IPDM E/R via CAN communication)
- Engine speed signal (received from ECM via CAN communication)
When the operation conditions are satisfied, AFS c ontrol unit controls the swivel angle depending on the
steering angle and the vehicle speed.
AFS operation condition- Swivel actuator initialization completed
- AFS “ON”(AFS OFF indicator lamp “OFF”)
- Headlamp ON
- While the engine running
- Selector lever position other than “P” or “R”
- Vehicle speed approximately 25 km/h (15.5 MPH) or more (Left swivel only; Right swivel activates regardless of the vehicle speed.)
Swivel Actuator Initialization
AFS control unit performs the swivel actuator in itialization when detecting that the engine starts.

TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LA MP SYSTEM : System Description
INFOID:0000000006213902
OUTLINE
Turn signal and the hazard warning lamp is controlled by combination switch reading function, flasher control
function and auto hazard function of BCM.
TURN SIGNAL LAMP OPERATION
BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
BCM supplies voltage to the right (left) turn signal la mp circuit when the ignition switch is turned ON and the
turn signal switch is in the right (left) position. BCM blinks the turn signal lamp.
HAZARD WARNING LAMP OPERATION
BCM supplies voltage to both turn signal lamp circuit when the hazard switch is turned ON. BCM blinks the
hazard warning lamp.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LAMP AND TURN SIGNAL SOUND OPERATION
BCM transmits the turn indicator signal to the comb ination meter via CAN communication while the turn sig-
nal lamp and the hazard warning lamp operating.
Combination meter outputs the turn signal sound with the integrated buzzer while blinking the turn signal
indicator lamp according to the turn indicator signal.
HIGH FLASHER OPERATION
BCM detects the turn signal lamp ci rcuit status from the current value.
BCM increases the turn signal lamp blinking speed if the bulb or harness open is detected with the turn sig-
nal lamp operating.
NOTE:
The blinking speed is normal while operating the hazard warning lamp.
