through front combination lamp RH terminal 21.
Swivel position sensor detects swivel angle during ignition switch ON, and transmits swivel position sensor
signals to the AFS control unit:
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, power is supplied
to front combination lamp RH terminal 15
through AFS control unit terminal 4.
When ignition switch is turn to ON position, swivel position sensor input signal is supplied
to AFS control unit terminal 9
through front combination lamp RH terminal 14.
Ground is supplied
to front combination lamp RH terminal 19
through AFS control unit terminal 2.
The low beam headlamp RH starts to swivel to the right.
The swivel motor driving signals are blocked and the swivel motion stops when the steering angle reaches
approximately more than 80 degrees (predetermined). The low beam headlamp will not swivel any further no
matter how further right. As the steering wheel is turned back to the left, the swivel motor driving signals (both
1-phase and 2-phase) will be reversed, causing low beam headlamp RH to start swiveling to the left. When
steering angle becomes smaller than predetermined value, the low beam headlamp is set in the straight-
ahead position, swivel motor driving signals are blocked and low beam headlamps stop swiveling.
AFS OFF INDICATOR OPERATION
In response to the state of control, AFS control unit switches com-
mands of AFS off indicator signal sent to unified meter and A/C amp.
via CAN communication; and then turns on/off or blinks AFS off indi-
cator lamp built in the combination meter depending on the following
condition.
Bulb check operation
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off after illuminating for one sec-
ond as a bulb check for AFS off indicator lamp when turn ignition
switch ON is detected.
NOTE:
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off without a lapse of one sec-
ond when start of the engine is detected.
AFS switch operation
AFS off indicator lamp is illuminated while AFS switch is OFF.
AFS off indicator lamp is turned off while AFS switch is ON.
System warning operation
AFS off indicator lamp illuminates at intervals of approximately one second when AFS control unit detects
any specific DTC (diagnosis trouble code), or when unified meter and A/C amp. cannot receive AFS off
indicator signals.
NOTE:
Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits a command to combination meter to blink AFS off indicator lamp
when they cannot receive AFS off indicator signal.
SWIVEL ACTUATOR INITIALIZATION
AFS control unit performs swivel operation to initialize swivel actuator when start of the engine is detected.
Straight-ahead position of low beam headlamps is adjusted by turning low beam headlamps to outside vehicle
with specified swivel angle after turning it to the center of vehicle and making sure that it reaches the stopper.
Swivel actuator initialization shall be performed every time when start of the engine is detected.

Exhaust systemMake sure there are no loose supports, cracks or holes. If the sound of the
exhaust seems unusual or there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immediately
locate the trouble and correct it.MA-29
UnderbodyThe underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those
used on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these sub-
stances, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around
the exhaust system. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly
flushed with plain water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt
can easily accumulate.—
Fluid leaksCheck under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle
has been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use is
normal. If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check for
the cause and correct it immediately.—

ENGINE MAINTENANCE (VQ35DE ENGINE)PFP:10001
Checking Drive BeltsNLS0007H
WAR NING :
Be sure to perform when engine is stopped.
1. Inspect belts for cracks, fraying, wear and oil. If necessary, replace.
2. Inspect drive belt deflection or tension at a point on belt midway
between pulleys.
Inspection should be done only when engine is cold, or over
30 minutes after engine is stopped.
Measure the belt tension with belt tension gauge (Commercial
service tool: BT3373-F or equivalent) at points marked
shown in the figure.
When measuring the deflection, apply 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at
the marked point.
Adjust if the belt deflection exceeds the limit or if the belt ten-
sion is not within specifications.
CAUTION:
When checking the belt deflection or the tension immediately after installation, first adjust it to
the specified value. Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified
value to avoid variation in deflection between pulleys.
Tighten idler pulley lock nut by hand and measure the deflection or the tension without loose-
ness.
Belt Deflection and Tension
*: If belt tension gauge cannot be installed at check points shown, check drive belt tension at different location on belt.
Drive Belts Tension AdjustmentNLS0007I
CAUTION:
When belt is replaced with a new one, adjust it to value for “New belt” to accommodate for insuffi-
cient adaptability with pulley grooves.
When deflection or tension of belt being used exceeds “Limit”, adjust it to value for “After adjust-
ment”.
When checking belt deflection or tension immediately after installation, first adjust it to the speci-
fied value. Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to
avoid variation in deflection between pulleys.
When installing belt, make sure that it is correctly engaged with pulley grooves.
Keep engine oil, working fluid and engine coolant away from belt and pulley grooves.
Do not twist or bend belt excessively.
