Discharge Headlight Control Module Reuse
- If the discharge headlight control module is dented or damaged in any way, replace the module with a new one to prevent electrical shock and improper operation.
- Although the control module may temporarily operate normally even though it has received an impact, it is possible that the interior may have been damaged. When reusing the control module, inspect the following items regarding discharge headlight illumination to verify that there are no malfunctions. Verify that the discharge headlights illuminate normally by testing them several times under cold illumination (headlights off for approx. 10 min or more and then turned on) and hot illumination (headlights on for approx. 15 min or more, turned off for approx. 1 min, and then turned on again) conditions. Inspect the headlight illumination in the period from directly after cold illumination until they are uniformly illuminated (approx. 5 min) and verify that there is no flickering or inconsistent brightness. Turn on the headlights for approx. 30 min with normal condition bulbs and verify that there is no brightness difference between the right and left, and that illumination is consistent.
Discharge Type
| WARNING | Incorrect servicing of the discharge headlights could result in electrical shock. Before servicing the discharge headlights, always refer to the DISCHARGE HEADLIGHT SERVICE WARNINGS . See DISCHARGE HEADLIGHT SERVICE WARNINGS . |

AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE CONFIGURATION
Note. Use the IDS (laptop PC) because the PDS (Pocket PC) does not support the AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE CONFIGURATION.
Scheme 56
- Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
- After the vehicle is identified, select the following items from the initialization screen of the M-MDS. When using the IDS (laptop PC) Select "Module Programming".
- Then, select items from the screen menu in the following order. Select "Programmable Module Installation". Select "LCM".
- Perform the configuration according to the directions on the screen.
- Retrieve DTCs by the M-MDS, then verify that there is no DTC present. If a DTC (s) is detected, perform the applicable DTC inspection. See «DTC TABLE [AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE]»(ref-345416-S15109125192009102000000) .
Without Using M-MDS
| CAUTION | If any of the following occurs, the sensitivity cannot be set properly. Therefore, resume from Step 1 . 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.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position with the light switch in the OFF position and pulled back (Flash-to-pass ON).
- Switch the light switch from the OFF to TNS position five times and return it to the OFF position.
- Pull the light switch back once. (Flash-to-pass ON)
- Turn the light switch to the TNS position.
- Switch the light switch from the TNS to ON position five times and return it to the TNS position.
- Turn the light switch to the ON position.
- Switch the light switch from the ON to AUTO position five times and return it to the ON position.
- 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
- Switch the sensitivity by pulling the light switch back (Flash-to pass ON).
- 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
Scheme 57
- Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
- After the vehicle is identified, select the following items from the initialization screen of the M-MDS. When using the IDS (laptop PC) Select "Module Programming". When using the PDS (Pocket PC) Select "Programming". Select "Module Programming".
- Then, select items from the screen menu in the following order. Select "Programmable Parameters". Select "Exterior Lighting". Select "Autolamp On Setting- (GEM)".
- Select "Standard (Other)" or "Low (Other)" on the M-MDS to set the illumination level. NOTE: When the M-MDS is set to Low (Other), the auto-light sensor sensitivity decreases, and the TNS and headlight illumination timing is slower.
