HEADLAMP (XENON)
HEADLAMP (XENON)
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001527648
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001527649
A mobile valve shade type xenon headlamp is used. The xenon headlamp uses one xenon bulb each on the
LH and RH side. The xenon headlamp switches between high beam and low beam by using a high beam
solenoid to move the mobile valve shade over the xenon bulb.
Control of the headlamp system is dependent upon the position of the lighting switch (combination switch).
When the lighting switch is placed in the 2nd position, the BCM (body control module) receives input request-
ing the headlamps to illuminate. This input is then communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribu-
tion model engine room) via the CAN communication lines. The CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/
R controls the headlamp high and headlamp low relay coils. When energized, these relays direct power to the
respective headlamps, which then illuminate.

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM
AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001523233
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001523234
When the lighting switch is in AUTO position, it automatically turns ON/OFF the exterior lamps in accordance
with the ambient light levels.
The light and rain sensor detects ambient brightness and converts light (lux) to voltage which is output to the
BCM. The BCM (Body Control Module) controls auto light operation according to the signal inputs from the
light and rain sensor, lighting switch and ignition switch. If conditions are met, the BCM sends a request (via
CAN communication lines) to the IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) to activate
the exterior lamps.

DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001527654
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001527655
The daytime light system operates the front clearance lamps, rear tail lamps and license plate lamps. The
BCM monitors the engine running status and lighting switch (combination switch) signal to determine whether
the daytime light system should be activated. With the engine running and the lighting switch OFF, the BCM
sends a signal via CAN communication to the IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room)
to activate the headlamp low relay and the daytime light relay. The IPDM E/R supplies ground to the headlamp
low relay coil and daytime light relay coil which then energize to send power to the low beam headlamps, front
clearance lamps, rear tail lamps and license plate lamps.
