HEADLAMP AUTO AIMING OPERATION
The height sensor detects a change in height of rear vehicle with ignition switch ON, and transmits signals to
the AFS control unit:
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, power is supplied
to height sensor terminal 1
through AFS control unit terminal 6.
When ignition switch is turned to ON position, height sensor input signal is supplied
to AFS control unit terminal 28
through height sensor terminal 2.
Ground is supplied
to height sensor terminal 3
through AFS control unit terminal 8.
Aiming motor driving signal (voltage signal that corresponds to the vehicle height) is transmitted depending on
the height sensor signal at the start of the engine
to front combination lamp LH terminal 12
through AFS control unit terminal 40,
to front combination lamp RH terminal 12
through AFS control unit terminal 19.
Output of aiming motor driving signal is maintained unless headlamp (HIGH/LOW) illuminate detected.
Auto aiming control operation starts when headlamps (HIGH/LOW) illuminate detected.
When headlamps (HIGH/LOW) illuminate, output of aiming motor driving signal is changed according to the
height sensor signal. After the change, it is changed according to height sensor signals with predetermined
timing based on driving condition while headlamps are ON.
Auto Aiming Operation
AFS control unit starts outputting aiming motor drive signal when the engine starts, and continues to output it
until the engine stops. Aiming motor drive signal changes output when the specified conditions described
below are met.
Headlamp aiming motors set the low beam projectors according to aiming motor drive signals received from
AFS control unit, both headlamp aiming motors cause the low beam projectors to move to the position com-
manded by the signal.
The aiming motor drive signal level retains when the following conditions are not met.
AFS control unit operation when the vehicle is stopped (low beam headlamps illuminated)
Headlamp aiming motor drive signal is changed when vehicle height is stabilized with a parked condition,
depending on the height sensor signal detected with height sensor signal by AFS control unit.
AFS control unit operation when the vehicle is running (low beam headlamps illuminated)
When vehicle is running, headlamp aiming motor drive signal is changed depending on the height sensor
signal which is detected when AFS control unit detects constant steady speed of vehicle.
When the vehicle is accelerating or decelerating, AFS control unit keeps headlamp aiming motor drive sig-
nal voltage level rather than changing it, so that the low beam projectors of both headlamps do not oper-
ate.
CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
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.

Fuse NKS004DZ
If fuse is blown, be sure to eliminate cause of malfunction before
installing new fuse.
Use fuse of specified rating. Never use fuse of more than speci-
fied rating.
Do not partially install fuse; always insert it into fuse holder prop-
erly.
Remove fuse for “ELECTRICAL PARTS (BAT)” if vehicle is not
used for a long period of time.
Fusible Link NKS004E0
A melted fusible link can be detected either by visual inspection or by
feeling with finger tip. If its condition is questionable, use circuit
tester or test lamp.
CAUTION:
If fusible link should melt, it is possible that critical circuit
(power supply or large current carrying circuit) is shorted.
In such a case, carefully check and eliminate cause of mal-
function.
Never wrap outside of fusible link with vinyl tape. Important:
Never let fusible link touch any other wiring harness, vinyl
or rubber parts.
Circuit Breaker NKS004E1
The PTC thermistor generates heat in response to current flow. The
temperature (and resistance) of the thermistor element varies with
current flow. Excessive current flow will cause the element's temper-
ature to rise. When the temperature reaches a specified level, the
electrical resistance will rise sharply to control the circuit current.
Reduced current flow will cause the element to cool. Resistance falls
accordingly and normal circuit current flow is allowed to resume.

PDU (POWER DISTRIBUTION UNIT)PFP:285F1
Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS004ED
System DescriptionNKS004EE
PDU (Power Distribution Unit) is the unit that executes the power distribution with the control signal from
the Intelligent Key unit, instead of the mechanical power supply mechanism by conventional key cylinder.
The push-button ignition switch is operable when the Intelligent Key is within the detention area of the
interior antenna or is inserted to the key slot.
The push-button ignition switch operation is input to the Intelligent Key unit as a request signal. Then, the
Intelligent Key unit processes the request signal and orders the PDU to switch into the appropriate power
supply position.
NOTE:
The prerequisite for starting the engine varies by the state of brake pedal, A/T selector lever, and vehicle
speed.
PDU distributes power to each power supply circuit according to the request signal received.
The power supply position can be confirmed by illumination of the indicators in the upper surroundings of
the push-button ignition switch.
PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERATING PROCEDURE
The power supply position switching operation can be performed by the following operation.
NOTE:
When an Intelligent Key is within the detection area of inside antenna and when it is inserted to the key
slot, it is equivalent to the operations below.
When starting the engine, the Intelligent Key unit monitors the engine start conditions (brake pedal operat-
ing condition, A/T selector lever position, and vehicle speed).
Unless each start condition is fulfilled, the engine will not response regardless of how many times the
push-button ignition switch is pushed. At that time, illumination repeats the position in the order of LOCK
ACC ON LOCK.

nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer's comments; refer to RF-8, "
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.

Power Generation Voltage Variable Control System Operation InspectionNKS003NQ
CAUTION:
For this model, the battery current sensor that is installed to the battery cable at the negative ter-
minal measures the charging/discharging current of the battery, and performs various controls. If
the electrical component or the ground wire is connected directly to the battery terminal, the cur-
rent other than that being measured with the battery current sensor is charging to or discharging
from the battery. This condition causes the malfunction of the control, and then the battery dis-
charge may occur. Never connect the electrical component or the ground wire directly to the bat-
tery terminal.
When performing this inspection, always use the charged battery that completed the battery
inspection. (When the charging rate of the battery is low, the response speed of the voltage
change will become slow. This is a cause of an incorrect inspection.)
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CHECK ECM (CONSULT-II)
Perform ECM self-diagnosis with CONSULT-II. Refer to EC-133, "
