After replacing the headlight leveling ECU*1 or headlight swivel ECU*2, initialization of the ECU is necessary Click here.


PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (HEADLIGHT LEVELING MOTOR)


    1. Using the GTS, perform the Active Test Click here.

      HL Auto Leveling (w/ Static Headlight Auto Leveling)
      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      HL Auto Leveling This test activates the Leveling Motor of the LH and RH headlights. By activating the Leveling Motor, illumination direction of the headlights can be moved up/down. Up, Down, Stop Perform the Active Test with the vehicle stopped, the ignition switch ON and the low beam headlights on.
      AFS (w/ Dynamic Headlight Auto Leveling)
      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      HL Auto Leveling This test activates the Leveling Motor of the LH and RH headlights. By activating the Leveling Motor, illumination direction of the headlights can be moved up/down. Up, Down, Stop Perform the Active Test with the vehicle stopped, the ignition switch ON and the low beam headlights on.

      • *: Perform the Active Test with the engine running and vehicle stopped.

      OK
      Headlight leveling motors operate normally.
