DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005369869
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146609
The headlamp system for Canada vehicles is equipped with a daytime light relay that activates the high beam
headlamps at approximately half illumination whenever the engine is operating. If the parking brake is applied
before the engine is started the daytime lights will not be illuminated. The daytime lights will illuminate once the
parking brake is released. Thereafter, the daytime lights will continue to operate when the parking brake is
applied.

DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
Component Description
INFOID:0000000005369870
After starting the engine with the parking brake releas ed and the combination switch (lighting and turn signal
switch) in the OFF or 1ST position, the headlamp high beam automatically turns on at a reduced intensity.
With the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) in the 2nd position or with autolamps ON, the
headlamps function the same as conventional light systems.
OPERATION
The BCM monitors inputs from the parking brake swit ch and the combination switch (lighting and turn signal
switch) to determine when to activate the daytime light system. The BCM sends a daytime light request to the
IPDM E/R via the CAN communication lines. The IPDM E/ R grounds the daytime light relay which in turn, pro-
vides power to the ground side of the LH high beam lamp. Power flows backward through the LH high beam
lamp to the IPDM E/R, through the high beam fuses, through the RH high beam lamp circuit to the RH high
beam lamp and on to ground. The high beam lamps are wired in series which causes them to illuminate at a
reduced intensity.

PRECAUTIONS
5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect both battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the push-button ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering
wheel will lock when the push-button igniti on switch is turned to LOCK position.)
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
General precautions for service operationsINFOID:0000000005369811
• When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.
• When removing parts with a screw driver or other tool , protect parts by wrapping them with vinyl or tape.
• Keep removed parts protected with cloth.
• If an non-reuseable part is removed, replace it with a new one.
• After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.
• Never work with wet hands.
• Turn the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) OFF before disconnecting and connecting the connector.
• Do not use organic solvent (paint thinner or gasoline) to clean lamps or remove sealant residue.

If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or lo cation of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when you confirm the repair.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load. With brakes applied, place A/T shift selector in drive position.
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
• Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
• If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, check ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to that concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follow the procedure to repair the noise.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area.To help pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool (Chassis Ear: J-39570, Engine Ear: J-39565 and mechanic's stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
• removing the components in the area that you suspect the noise is coming from. Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fasteners can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
• tapping or pushing/pulling the component that you suspect is causing the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only tem-
porarily.
• feeling for a vibration with your hand by touching the component(s) that you suspect is (are) causing the
noise.
• placing a piece of paper between components that you suspect are causing the noise.
• looking for loose components and contact marks. Refer to INT-4, "
Generic Squeak and Rattle Troubleshooting".
REPAIR THE CAUSE
• If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
• If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- separate components by repositioning or loos ening and retightening the component, if possible.
- insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or urethane tape. A NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is available through your authorized NISSAN Parts Depart-
ment.
CAUTION:
Do not use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information.
The following materials are contained in the NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980). Each item can be
ordered separately as needed.
