E183425E01

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tip:

After replacing the headlight leveling ECU, initialization of the ECU is necessary (Click here).

PROCEDURE

  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (VEHICLE SPEED)

    1. Using the intelligent tester, read the Data List (Click here).

      Table 1. HL Auto Leveling

      Tester Display

      Measurement Item/Range

      Normal Condition

      Diagnostic Note

      Vehicle Speed

      Vehicle speed / 0 to 327.67 km/h

      A value similar to the actual vehicle speed is displayed

      -

      OK

      The display is as specified in the normal condition column.

    PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - HEADLIGHT LEVELING ECU ASSEMBLY)

    1. U123662E03

      Disconnect the H62 combination meter connector.

    2. Disconnect the A49 headlight leveling ECU connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Content

      Terminal No. (Symbol)

      H62-3 (+S) - Body ground

      Tool setting

      5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.

      Condition

      Vehicle is driven at approximately 20 km/h (12 mph)

      OK

      Waveform is as shown in the illustration.

      Tip:

      When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.
