DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
The daytime running light system is designed to automatically illuminate the daytime running lights (high-intensity parking lights) during the daytime to make the vehicle more visible to other vehicles.
This system is controlled by the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
There are 2 LED type clearance light circuits in headlight. One is for a conventional low-intensity clearance light that illuminates with the taillights, and the other is for the high-intensity clearance light that is used for the DRL system.
This system is enabled when the following conditions are met:
The power switch is on (IG).
READY condition is received.
The light control switch is in the off, tail or AUTO position (and the low beam headlights are not turned on via the automatic light control system). (w/o DRL OFF Switch)
The light control switch is in the tail or AUTO position (and the low beam headlights are not turned on via the automatic light control system). (w/ DRL OFF Switch)
The parking brake switch is off.
LANE CHANGE FLASHER CONTROL
This control is controlled by the combination meter assembly.
When moving the headlight dimmer switch assembly (turn signal switch) to the lane change position (it is not necessary to hold the switch) during a lane change, the turn signal light flashes a specified number of times.
While the turn signal light is flashing after the headlight dimmer switch assembly (turn signal switch) is moved to the lane change position (it is not necessary to hold the switch), the turn signal light turns off if the headlight dimmer switch assembly (turn signal switch) is moved in the opposite direction.
FOLLOW ME HOME SYSTEM (w/ Follow Me Home System)
The follow me home system is designed to illuminate the low beam headlights for approximately 30 seconds after the vehicle is parked.
This system is controlled by the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
This system is enabled when the following conditions are met:

The light control switch is in the AUTO position.
The light control switch is pulled to flash the headlights once.
