FRONT FOG LAMP
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001547106
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547107
The front fog lamps are activated with the lighting switch (combination switch). The lighting switch signal to
the BCM is monitored with the BCM combination switch reading function. When the fog lamps are turned ON
with the lighting switch, the BCM sends a front fog lamp request signal via CAN communication lines to the
IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R grounds the front fog la mp relay coil to activate the front fog lamps.

Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547109
FRONT FOG LAMP OPERATION
When the lighting switch is in front fog lamp ON posit ion and also in 1ST or 2ND position or AUTO position
(headlamp is ON), the BCM detects FR FOG ON and t he HEAD LAMP1, 2 ON or the AUTO LIGHT ON. The
BCM sends a front fog lamp request ON signal via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM
E/R then turns ON the front fog lamp re lay sending power to the front fog lamps.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547111
TURN SIGNAL OPERATION
When the turn signal switch is in LH or RH position with the ignition switch in ON position, the BCM detects the
TURN RH or TURN LH ON request. The BCM outputs the flasher signal to the respective turn signal lamp.
The BCM also sends a turn indicator signal ON reques t via the CAN communication lines to the combination
meter. The combination meter then activates the appropriate turn signal indicator and audible buzzer.
HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
When the hazard switch is in ON position, the BCM det ects the hazard switch signal ON. The BCM outputs the
flasher signal (right and left). The BCM sends a hazar d indicator signal ON request via the CAN communica-
tion lines to the combination meter. The combination meter then activates the hazard indicator and audible
buzzer.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY OPERATION
The remote keyless entry receiver transmits a hazar d request signal to the BCM, then BCM controls hazard
lamps.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547115
PARKING, LICENCE PLATE AND TAIL LAMPS OPERATION
When the lighting switch is in 1ST position, BCM detects the LIGHTI NG SWITCH 1ST POSITION ON. The
BCM sends a parking light ON request via the CAN comm unication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R then
activates the tail lamp relay which sends power to the parking and instrument illumination circuits.
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
With the lighting switch (combination switch) in the 2nd position and the ignition switch is turned from ON or
ACC to OFF, the battery saver feature is activated.
Under this condition, the headlamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes unless the lighting switch position is
changed. If the lighting switch position is changed, then the headlamps are turned off.
This setting can be changed by CONSULT-III. Refer to EXL-23, "
EXTERNAL LAMP : CONSULT-III Function".

TRAILER TAIL LAMP OPERATION
The trailer tail lamps are controlled by the trailer tow relay 1 located behind the left side of the instrument panel
(IP). With the combination switch in the 1st position, the BCM detects the LIGHTING SWITCH 1ST POSITION
ON. The BCM sends a parking light ON request via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM
E/R then activates the tail lamp relay which activates the trailer tow relay 1 and sends power to the trailer con-
nector.
TRAILER TURN SIGNAL LAMP OPERATION
The trailer turn signal lamps are controlled by the BCM. When the turn signal switch is in the LH or RH position
with the ignition switch ON, the combination switch sends a signal to the BCM. The BCM detects the TURN
RH or TURN LH ON request. The BCM sends a control signal to the respective trailer turn relay which sends
power to the trailer connector.
TRAILER HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
The trailer hazard lamps are controlled by the BCM. W hen the hazard switch is pressed, the BCM detects the
the hazard ON request. The BCM then sends a control si gnal to both trailer turn relays which sends power to
the trailer connector.
TRAILER BRAKE LAMP OPERATION
The trailer brake lamps are controlled by the BCM. When the brake pedal is depressed, the combination meter
receives a stop lamp switch signal from the stop lamp switch. The combination meter then sends the brake
signal to the BCM via the CAN communication lines. The BCM then sends a control signal to both trailer turn
relays which sends power to the trailer connector.
