DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM

System Diagram

INFOID:0000000005561488

System Description

INFOID:0000000005274705

The headlamp system for Canada vehicles is equipped with a daytime light control 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.

OPERATION

The BCM monitors inputs from the parking brake switch 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.

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM

System Diagram

INFOID:0000000005561489

System Description

INFOID:0000000005561490

The auto light control system has an optical sensor that detects outside brightness.
When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) is in AUTO position, it automatically turns ON/
OFF the parking, license plate, tail and headlamps in accordance with the ambient light. Sensitivity can be
adjusted in four steps. For the details, refer to 

EXL-27, "HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III Function (BCM - HEAD

LAMP)"

.

AUTO LIGHT OPERATION

The auto light system operates the low beam and high beam headlamps, parking lamps, tail lamps and license
plate lamps. The BCM monitors the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) position as a part of
the BCM combination switch reading function. When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) is
in the AUTO position, the BCM automatically turns the lamps ON/OFF according to ambient light brightness.
When the key is turned OFF and all doors are closed, the auto light system keeps the headlamps ON for 45
seconds. 
NOTE:
Timing for when lamps turn ON/OFF can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-III. Refer to 

EXL-27,

"HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III Function (BCM - HEAD LAMP)"
