lamps turn off when lighting switch is in the 2ND position or AUTO position (Headlamp is "ON") and when light-
ing switch is in the PASSING position. (Daytime light lamps are not turned off only by parking brake itself.)
A parking brake signal and engine run or stop signal are sent to BCM (body control module) by CAN commu-
nication line.
OUTLINE
Power is supplied at all times
• to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room),
• through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)
• to BCM terminal 70,
• through 20A fuse (No. 53, located in the IPDM E/R)
• to CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R,
• through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
• to combination meter terminal 8, and
• through 10A fuse (No. 45, located in the IPDM E/R)
• to daytime light relay terminals 2 and 5.
When the ignition switch is in ON or START position, power is supplied
• to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R,
• through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)
• to BCM terminal 38, and
• through 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
• to combination meter terminal 24.
Ground is supplied
• to BCM terminal 67 and
• to combination meter terminal 17
• through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
DAYTIME LIGHT OPERATION
With the engine running, the lighting switch in the OFF or 1ST position and parking brake released, the IPDM
E/R receives input requesting the daytime lights illuminate. This input is communicated across the CAN com-
munication lines. The CPU of the IPDM E/R controls the daytime light relay coil. When energized, this relay
directs power
• through daytime light relay terminal 3
• to front combination lamp LH terminal 2
• through front combination lamp LH terminal 6
• to IPDM E/R terminal 55
• through 10A fuse (No. 35, located in the IPDM E/R)
• through 10A fuse (No. 34, located in the IPDM E/R)
• through IPDM E/R terminal 56
• to front combination lamp RH terminal 6.
Ground is supplied
• to front combination lamp RH terminal 2
• through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
With power and ground supplied, the daytime lights illuminate. The high beam headlamps are now wired in
series and illuminate at a reduced intensity.

Aiming AdjustmentINFOID:0000000003533400
The fog lamp is a semi-sealed beam type which uses a replaceable halogen bulb. Before performing aiming
adjustment, make sure of the following.
• Keep all tires inflated to correct pressure.
• Place vehicle on level ground.
• See that vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,
engine oil and fuel, and spare tire, jack, and tools). Have the driver
or equivalent weight placed in driver seat.
Adjust aiming in the vertical direction by turning the adjustment
screw.
NOTE:
Access adjustment screw from underneath front bumper. Turn screw
clockwise to raise pattern and counterclockwise to lower pattern.
1. Set the distance between the screen and the center of the fog
lamp lens as shown.
2. Turn front fog lamps ON.
3. Adjust front fog lamps using adjusting screw so that the top edge
of the high intensity zone is 200 mm (7.9 in) below the height of
the fog lamp centers as shown.
• When performing adjustment, if necessary, cover the headlamps
and opposite fog lamp.

CHARGING SYSTEM
Before starting, perform the preliminary inspection. Refer to "PRELIMINARY INSPECTION".
1. Stop the operation of the power generation variable voltage control system using either of the following
procedures.
• Using the CONSULT-II, select "ENGINE" from "SELECT SYSTEM" and set the "ALT DUTY" to 0%.
Keep "ALT DUTY" at 0% until the end of the inspection. When the "ALT DUTY" value is 0% or 100%,
normal power generation is performed according to the characteristic of the IC regulator in the genera-
tor.
• Turn the ignition switch off, and disconnect the battery current sensor connector. Disconnecting the bat-
tery current sensor may cause DTC (P1550 - P1554) to set. After finishing the inspection, connect the
battery current sensor connector and erase the self-diagnostic results history of the engine using CON-
SULT-II.
2. Turn off all loads on the vehicle electrical system.
3. Perform battery and starting system test with Battery/Starting/
Charging system tester.
4. Press “ENTER” to begin the charging system test.
5. Start engine.
6. Press “ENTER” until “LOADS OFF REV ENGINE 5 SEC” is dis-
played.
7. Raise and hold the engine speed at 1,500 to 2,000 rpm for about
5 seconds, then return the engine to idle.
Once the increase in engine rpm is detected, press “ENTER” to
continue.
NOTE:
• If after 30 seconds an increase in engine idle speed is not
detected, “RPM NOT DETECTED” will display.
• Some engines may have a higher idle initially after starting,
particularly when the engine is cold. The tester may detect this
without any other action being taken. If this occurs, continue
on with the testing process. The final results will not be affected.
8. The tester now checks the engine at idle and performs the
DIODE/RIPPLE check.
9. When complete, the tester will prompt you to turn on the follow-
ing electrical loads.
• Heater fan set to highest speed. Do not run the A/C or wind-
shield defroster.
• Headlamp high beam
• Rear window defogger
NOTE:
Do not run the windshield wipers or any other cyclical loads.
