LIGHTING


  1. General


    1. The lane change flasher system flashes the turn signal light a certain number of times when the turn signal switch (headlight dimmer switch assembly) is moved to the lane change position. By using the lane change flasher system when changing lanes, it is no longer necessary to hold the turn signal switch in the lane change position.

  4. Construction


    1. Turn Signal Switch (Headlight Dimmer Switch Assembly)


      1. The lane change flasher system is operated by moving the turn signal switch to the lane change position.

      2. After the turn signal switch has been moved to the lane change position, it will return to the neutral position once released from the hand.

  5. Operation


    1. The lane change flasher system operates in the following way:

      A01W7WX
      Condition Turn Signal Switch Turn Signal Light
      A Commencing lane changing Move to lane change position Starts flashing
      B During lane changing

      Not moved


      • If operation finishes during lane changing, flashing will start if the lane change position is moved to again.

      		 Extinguishes after flashing 3 times*
      C Finishing lane changing

      Not moved


      • If the turn signal light is flashing even after lane changing has finished, moving the switch in the direction opposite to the current position will extinguish the light.

      		 Extinguishes

      *: The flashing frequency can be configured by means of the customization function (customizable parameter: off, 3, 5, 7, 9 or 11). For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
