Diagnosis DescriptionINFOID:0000000004215511
AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test mode, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
• Oil pressure low/coolant pressure high warning indicator
• Oil pressure gauge
• Rear window defogger
• Front wipers
• Tail, license and parking lamps
• Front fog lamps
• Headlamps (Hi, Lo)
• A/C compressor (magnetic clutch)
• Cooling fan
Operation Procedure
1. Close the hood and front door RH, and lift the wiper arms from the windshield (to prevent windshield dam-
age due to wiper operation).
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield before hand.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press the front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Af ter that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
5. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
• If auto active test mode cannot be actua ted, check door switch system. Refer to DLK-71, "
Descrip-
tion".
• Do not start the engine.
Inspection in Auto Active Test Mode
When auto active test mode is actuated, the following 7 steps are repeated 3 times.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (IPDM E/R)
Concept of auto active test
• IPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communica-
tion. Therefore, the CAN communication line between IPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the auto
active test starts successfully.
• The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated.

HEADLAMP (HI) CIRCUIT
HEADLAMP (HI) CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005867521
The IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) controls the headlamp LH high and head-
lamp RH high relays based on inputs from the BCM via the CAN communication lines. When the headlamp LH
high and headlamp RH high relays are energized, power flows through fuse\
s 34 and 35, located in the IPDM
E/R. Power then flows to the front combination lamps to the headlamp high beam.
Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000003776179
1.CHECK HEADLAMP (HI) OPERATION
WITHOUT CONTULT-III
1. Start IPDM E/R auto active test. Refer to PCS-12, "
Diagnosis Description".
2. Check that the headlamp switches to the high beam. NOTE:
HI/LO is repeated 1 second each when usi ng the IPDM E/R auto active test.
CONSULT-III
1. Select "EXTERNAL LAMP" of IPDM E/R active test item.
2. With the test item operating, check that the headlamp switches to high beam.
Does the headlamp switch to high beam?
YES >> Headlamp (HI) circuit is normal.
NO >> Refer to EXL-32, "
Diagnosis Procedure - Without Daytime Light System", EXL-33, "Diagnosis
Procedure - With Daytime Light System".
Diagnosis Procedure - Wit hout Daytime Light SystemINFOID:0000000003776180
1.CHECK HEADLAMP (HI) FUSES
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Check that the following fuses are not open.
Is the fuse open?
YES >> Repair the harness and replace the fuse.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK HEADLAMP (HI) OUTPUT VOLTAGE
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the front combination lamp connector E11 or E107.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
4. Turn the high beam headlamps ON.
5. With the high beam headlamps ON, check the voltage between the combination lamp connector and ground.
Are the voltage readings as specified?
YES >> GO TO 4. HI : Headlamp switches to the high beam.
