System DescriptionNKS003TH
Control of the illumination lamps operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting switch (combination
switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if the auto light system is activated)
the BCM (body control module) receives input signal requesting the illumination lamps to illuminate. This input
signal is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN
communication lines. The CPU (central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay
coil. This relay, when energized, directs power to the illumination lamps, which then illuminate.

EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
BCM activates the exterior lamp battery saver control function and turns off the exterior lamps to prevent bat-
tery from over discharge when the combination switch (lighting switch) is in 1ST or 2ND position and/or the
front fog lamp switch ON and the door lock operation is performed by keyless entry system.
CAN Communication System DescriptionNKS003TI
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.
CAN Communication UnitNKS003TJ
Refer to LAN-50, "CAN System Specification Chart" .

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
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.— ItemReference page
