SYSTEM CONTROL
The control functions of the illuminated entry system include room light control, battery saving control, etc.
Centered around the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) positioned inside the instrument panel, the illuminated entry system performs control based on the input and output of necessary information from connected ECUs via CAN communication.
