CYLINDER BLOCK
Measure the outer diameter of piston skirt with a micrometer (A).
Piston-to-Cylinder Bore Clearance
Calculate by piston skirt diameter and cylinder bore inner diameter
[direction (B), position (D)].
(Clearance) = (Cylinder bore inner diameter) – (Piston skirt diameter).
 If the calculated value exceeds the limit, r eplace piston and piston pin assembly. Refer to EM-137,
"CylinderBlock".
Re-boring Cylinder Bore
1. Cylinder bore size is determined by adding piston to cylinder bore clearance to piston skirt diameter.
2. Install main bearing cap, and tighten to the specifi ed torque. Otherwise, cylinder bores may be distorted in
final assembly.
3. Cut cylinder bores. NOTE:
 When any cylinder needs boring, all other cylinders must also be bored.
 Do not cut too much out of cylinder bore at a time. Cut only 0.05 mm (0.0020 in) or so in diameter at a
time.
4. Hone cylinders to obtain the specified piston to cylinder bore clearance.
5. Measure finished cylinder bore for the out-of-round and taper. NOTE:
Perform measurement after cylinder bore cools down.

CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER
 Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with a
micrometer (A).
 If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-126,

CRANKSHAFT OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER
 Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown in the
figure on each main journal and pin journal with a micrometer.
 Out-of-round is indicated by t he difference in the dimensions
between (d) and (c) at (a) and (b).
 Taper is indicated by the difference in the dimensions between.
 If the measured value exceeds the li mit, correct or replace crankshaft.
 If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then select
the main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-128, "
MainBearing" and/or EM-126,
"ConnectingRodBearing".

 The identification grade stamped on each part is the
grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
 For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimens ion accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
 For details of the measurement method of each part , the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.

 BCM transmits each request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication, according to ON/OFF condition by
the auto light function.
NOTE:
As to ON/OFF timing, the sensitivity depends on sett ings. The settings can be changed with CONSULT-III.
Refer to EXL-23, "
HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III F unction (BCM - HEAD LAMP)".
Auto Lighting Timing Table
When the light switch is in AUTO position and the ignition switch is ON, the exterior lamps turns ON/OFF in the
following condition.
Standard Light ON
BCM turns exterior lamps ON when outside brightness obtained from the optical sensor signal is 1250 lx or
less for 3 seconds or more. And BCM turns exterior lamp OFF when outside brightness from the optical sen-
sor signal is 2500 lx or more for 5 seconds or more.
Twilight Light ON (Twili ght Lighting Function)
BCM detects twilight by filtered brightness.
 BCM filters outside brightness to block the impact of the rapid change in brightness, based on the optical
sensor signal, and judges outside brightness.
 BCM detects changes in outside brightness, based on outside brightness obtained from the optical sensor
signal and filtered brightness and judges ON/OFF of the exterior lamps.
Filtering chart
 BCM starts filtering 0.3 seconds after the ignition swit ch is turned ON and the light switch is turned to AUTO.
 BCM filters signals from the optical sensor at intervals of 2 seconds.When the filtered brightness is higher
than outside brightness (signal from the optical sens or), BCM decreases the filtered brightness by 20
lx
*.When the filtered brightness is lower than outside bri ghtness, BCM increases the filtered brightness by 20
lx
*.
 BCM turns ON the exterior lamps when filtered brightness reaches 3000 lx and turns OFF when reaching 5000 lx.
*:When vehicle speed is 5 km/h or less, BCM decr eases/increases the filtered brightness by 5 lx.
WIPER LINKED AUTO LIGHTING FUNCTION
BCM turns the exterior lamp ON when detecting 4 operations of the front wiper work the light switch in AUTO
position.
NOTE:
BCM turns OFF the headlamps 3 seconds after the front wiper switch is turned from HI⇒OFF.
Exterior lamps Standard Light ON
(Sudden increase/decrease in brightness) Twilight Light ON
(Gradual increase/decrease in brightness)
ON Outside brightness is 1250 lx or less for 3
seconds or more.Filtered brightness is 3000 lx or less
OFF Outside brightness is 2500 lx or more for 5
seconds or more.
Filtered brightness is 5000 lx or more
