3. Open the radiator drain plug at the bottom of the radiator, and
remove the radiator filler cap. This is the only step required
when partially draining the cooling system (radiator only).
CAUTION:
Do not to allow the coolant to contact the drive belts.
4. When draining all of the coolant in the system for engine
removal or repair, it is necessary to drain the cylinder block.
Remove the RH cylinder block drain plug to drain the right bank
and the oil cooler hose to drain the left bank as shown.
5. Remove the reservoir tank to drain the engine coolant, then clean the reservoir tank before installing it.
6. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-14, "
FLUSHING COOLING
SYSTEM" .
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Close the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir tank, cylinder block drain plug, and the oil cooler hose, if
removed for a total system drain or for engine removal or repair.

The radiator must be completely empty of coolant and water.

Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain plug. Use Genuine High Performance Thread
Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-45, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS" .
2. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heater ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
3. Remove the vented reservoir cap and replace it with a non-vented reservoir cap before filling the cooling
system.

CAUTION:
If using the vehicle for towing, the rear final drive oil must be replaced as specified. Refer to MA-6,
"Schedule 1" .
NOTE:
Rear final drive shown, front final drive similar.
1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Remove the drain plug and drain the final drive oil.
3. Apply sealant to the drain plug threads.

Use High Performance Thread Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-45, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants" .
4. Install the drain plug and tighten to specification.
5. Refill the final drive with new specified oil.
6. Check the oil level.
7. Install the filler plug and tighten to specification.
Balancing WheelsELS0010O
REMOVAL
1. Using a releasing agent, remove the double-faced adhesive taped wheel weight(s) from the wheel.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to scratch the wheel during removal.

After removing double-faced adhesive taped wheel weights, wipe clean any traces of the releas-
ing agent from the wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting, select
and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for wheels.
1. Set the wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When the inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply the outer
imbalance value by 1.6 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight
with a value closest to the calculated value and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the des-
ignated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.

Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the wheel.Oil capacity and grade : Refer to RFD-11, "

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
IPDM E/R STATUS CONTROL
In order to save power, IPDM E/R switches status automatically based on each operating condition.
1. CAN communication status

CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.

Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.

When sleep request signal is received from BCM, mode is switched to sleep waiting status.
2. Sleep waiting status

Process to stop CAN communication is activated.

All systems controlled by IPDM E/R are stopped. When 1 second has elapsed after CAN communica-
tion with other control units is stopped, mode switches to sleep status.
3. Sleep status

IPDM E/R operates in low current-consumption mode.

CAN communication is stopped.

When a change in CAN communication signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communication sta-
tus.

When a change in ignition switch signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communication status.
CAN Communication System DescriptionEKS007NO
Refer to LAN-5, "CAN COMMUNICATION" .
Function of Detecting Ignition Relay MalfunctionEKS007NP

When the integrated ignition relay is stuck in a "closed contact" position and cannot be turned OFF, IPDM
E/R turns ON tail and parking lamps for 10 minutes to indicate IPDM E/R malfunction.

When the state of the integrated ignition relay does not agree with the state of the ignition switch signal
received via CAN communication, the IPDM E/R activates the tail lamp relay.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the tail lamps are OFF.

Auto Active TestEKS007NR
DESCRIPTION

In auto active test mode, operation inspection can be performed when IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to
the following systems:
–Rear window defogger
–Front wipers
–Tail and parking lamps
–Front fog lamps
–Headlamps (Hi, Lo)
–A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
–Cooling fan
OPERATION PROCEDURE

2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn ignition
switch OFF.
4. Turn ignition switch ON within 10 seconds after ignition switch OFF.
5. When auto active test mode is actuated, horn chirps once.
6. After a series of operations is repeated three times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway, turn ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform BL-93, "
Door Switch Check" when the auto active test cannot be performed.
