id091800807600

Note

• Inspect the auto light sensor from the back side of the connector with the connector still connected.

1. Measure the voltage at auto light sensor terminal A and verify that the voltage is 5 V.
2. Shine a fluorescent light or expose the auto light sensor to natural sunlight.
3. Connect the positive (+) lead to terminal B and

the negative (

−) lead to terminal C of the auto light

sensor, and verify that the voltages are as shown
in the table.

• If the voltage is not as specified, replace the

auto light sensor.

AUTO LIGHT CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION

id091800807400

1. Measure the voltage at the auto light control module terminals as indicated below.
2. Disconnect the auto light control module connector before inspecting for continuity at terminals 1K, 2A, 2O and

2P.

• If not as specified, inspect the parts listed under “Action.”

AUTO LIGHT ILLUMINATION LEVEL SETTING

id091800803300

Caution

• If any of the following occurs, the sensitivity cannot be set properly. Therefore, resume from Step

• Each procedure and operation interval exceeds 5 s.

• Procedures are performed incorrectly.

Note

• Perform the procedure in a condition that allows verification of the headlight illumination because it is

necessary to verify the setting condition according to the number of times headlights turn on.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position with the light switch in the OFF position and pulled back (Flash-to-

pass ON).

2. Switch the light switch from the OFF to TNS position five times and return it to the OFF position.
3. Pull the light switch back once. (Flash-to-pass ON)
4. Turn the light switch to the TNS position.
5. Switch the light switch from the TNS to ON position five times and return it to the TNS position.
6. Turn the light switch to the ON position.
7. Switch the light switch from the ON to AUTO position five times and return it to the ON position.
8. Turn the light switch to the TNS position.

Note

• Switches to the sensitivity setting mode when the above operations are performed.

• The headlights turn on for the number of times according to the current setting conditions.

— Illumination (Two times): Standard sensitivity

— Illumination (Three times): Low sensitivity

9. Switch the sensitivity by pulling the light switch back (Flash-to pass ON).

10. Verify the number of times the headlights turn on and that the sensitivity is set properly.

• Illumination (Two times): Standard sensitivity

• Illumination (Three times): Low sensitivity
