Auto Light System
Auto Light System: System DescriptionThe auto light control system has an optical sensor that detects outside brightness. When the lighting switch is in AUTO position, it automatically turns ON/OFF the parking, license plate, tail and headlamps in accordance with the ambient light. Sensitivity can be adjusted in four steps. For the details, refer to [SDT Function (BCM - HEAD LAMP)]. Head Lamp
AUTO LIGHT OPERATION
The auto light system operates the low beam and high beam headlamps, parking lamps, tail lamps and license plate lamps. The BCM monitors the lighting switch (combination switch) position as a part of the BCM combination switch reading function. When the lighting switch is in the AUTO position, the BCM automatically turns the lamps ON/OFF according to ambient light brightness. When the key is turned OFF and all doors are closed, the auto light system keeps the headlamps ON for 45 seconds.
NOTE: Timing for when lamps turn ON/OFF can be changed by the function setting of SDT. Refer to [SDT Function (BCM - HEAD LAMP)]. Head Lamp
