System Description ± Headlights
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
The Daytime Running Light (DRL) system is activated when engine is started (However, if the parking brake
lever is engaged when the engine is started, the DRL will not light up a\
fter the engine has started. Once the
parking brake is released, the DRL will then light up and will remain on regardless of operation of\
the parking
brake lever).
The DRL remain on until the ignition switch is turned off.

(Washer Hose and Nozzle)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF
WASHER HOSE AND NOZZLE
1. REMOVE WASHER HOSE(a) Remove fender liner.
(b) Disconnect washer hose from washer motor.
(c) Remove the hose clamps as shown.HINT: When installing or removing the hose clamp on the un-
derside of the engine hood, remove the clip on the underside
of the silencer.
(d) Remove service hole grommet and disconnect the hose from washer nozzle.
2. INSTALL WASHER HOSE For installation follow the removal procedure in reverse.
HINT: During assembly, the washer hose should be passed
under neath the engine hood hinge on the body side.
3. REMOVE WASHER NOZZLE (a) Remove service hole grommet.
(b) Disconnect washer hose from nozzle.
(c) Press on the claw on the underside of the nozzle and remove it from above.
4. INSTALL WASHER NOZZLE For installation follow the removal procedure in reverse.
ADJUSTMENT OF WASHER NOZZLE
1. INSPECT WASHER NOZZLE
(a) While operating the washer, check whether the upper point where the washer fluid hits the windshield and the
up surge area are within the range indicated by the
hatched line.
(A) Approx. 150 mm (5.91 in.)
(B) Approx. 50 mm (1.99 in.)
(C) Approx. 0±1000 mm (0±3.94 in.)
(b) Check if the lower point where the washer fluid hits thewindshield is within the range of the wiping pattern (the
area of the glass which is wiped by the wiped blades.)
2. ADJUST WASHER NOZZLE Using a tool like that shown in the figure, change the direction
of the nozzle hole to adjust the point where washer fluid
strikes the windshield.

DESCRIPTION
The combination meter has various meters and gauges which show the vehicle'\
s condition, warning lights which
monitor abnormalities in the vehicle and inform the driver, indicator lights which inform the driver of the condition
of each part of vehicle, and a function for illumination and brightness ad\
justment of meters and gauges.
The component parts of this system and their functions are described in \
the following table.
Parts NameFunction
SpeedometerThe speedometer needle moves in accordance with signals from the speed s\
ensor to
indicate the vehicle's speed.
TachometerThe tachometer needle moves in accordance with signals from the igniter \
to indicate the
engine's speed.
Water Temperatrue
GaugeThe water temperature gauge's needle moves in accordance with signals from the send-
er gauge and indicates the temperature of the engine coolant.
Fuel GaugeThe fuel gauge needle moves in accordance with signals from the sender g\
auge, indicat-
ing the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
OdometerThe odometer counts the total distance traveled by the vehicle in accord\
ance with pulse
signals from the speed sensor.
Twin Trip Switch
The twin trip meter counts the distance traveled by the vehicle in accor\
dance with pulse
signals from the speed sensor. It can be reset using a switch and can be used to switch
between trip meters A and B.
Circuit Plate
This plate contains the circuitry for each meter and gauge and for each \
warning light and
indicator light, as well as an internal engine oil level warning drive c\
ircuit, drive circuits for
the odometer and trip meter and brightness adjustment circuitry for each\
indicator.
Speed SensorMounted in the transmission, this sensor outputs pulse signals to the co\
mbination meter
in accordance with the speed of the output shaft.
Twin Trip SwitchOperation of this switch switches between the A and B trip meters and se\
nds reset sig-
nals to the combination meter.
Water
Temperature Sender
GaugeThis sender converts engine coolant temperatures to a resistance value i\
n signal form to
the combination meter.
Fuel Sender GaugeThis sender converts the level of fuel remaining in fuel tank to resista\
nce value and
sends the resistance value in signal form to combination meter.
Rheostat Light
Control VolumeIn order to adjust the degree of illumination of the combination meter, the resistance val-
ue of the built±in variable resistor is sent to the combination meter\
and rheostat light
control.
Fuel Level Warning
SwitchWhen the level of fuel remaining falls below a predetermined level, cont\
inuity is estab-
lished with this switch, which is built into the fuel sender gauge, caus\
ing a warning light
to light up.
Low Oil Pressure
Warning SwitchThis switch is mounted on the engine block. Continuity is established in\
this switch when
the oil pressure is low, causing a warning light to light up.
Integration Relay (Seat
Belt Warning Relay)
This relay receives current from fuse GAUGE and DOME and is connected to\
each
buckle switch, door courtesy switch, key unlock warning switch and warni\
ng light. As
part of the seat belt warning system, it sounds a chime and lights a war\
ning light when
seat belts are unfastened. As part of the key unlock warning system, it \
sounds a chime
when the set conditions are fulfilled.
Light Failure SensorThis sensor senses when a bulb in rear combination light is burnt out an\
d lights up a
warning light.

Parts NameFunction
Coolant Level
Warning SwitchThis switch is installed in the radiator reservoir tank. It lights up a \
warning light when the
coolant level becomes low.
Engine Oil Level
Warning SwitchThis switch is mounted in the engine oil pan. It lights a warning light \
when the engine oil
level is low.
Brake Fluid Level
Warning SwitchThis switch is mounted in the brake master cylinder reservoir tank. It l\
ights up a warning
light when the brake fluid level is low.
Parking Brake SwitchThis switch is on the parking brake lever bracket. Continuity in this sw\
itch is established
when the lever is released, causing a warning light to light up.
Door Courtesy SwitchContinuity is established in this switch when a door is opened, causing \
a warning light to
light up.
Warning LightsWhen an abnormality is detected in the vehicle, current is sent to these\
lights, or they are
grounded, causing them to light up.
Indicator LightsCurrent is sent to these lights, or they are grounded, causing them to l\
ight up and indicate
the vehicle's condition to the driver.
Window Washer Level
Warning SwitchThis switch is mounted in the window washer tank. It lights a warning li\
ght when the
window washer level becomes low.
