Toyota Avalon Service & Repair Manual: Automatic High Beam System does not Operate or Operation Indicator does not Illuminate

Toyota Avalon Service & Repair Manual / Vehicle Exterior / Lighting (ext) / Lighting System(for Hv Model With Cornering Light) / Automatic High Beam System does not Operate or Operation Indicator does not Illuminate

DESCRIPTION

The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) controls the automatic high beam system based on signals received from the forward recognition camera.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Before replacing the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU), refer to Registration.

  • When replacing the forward recognition camera, always replace it with a new one. If a forward recognition camera which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in the forward recognition camera will not match the information from the vehicle. As a result, a DTC may be stored.
  • If the forward recognition camera has been replaced with a new one, be sure to perform Forward Recognition Camera Learning.

  • Before performing troubleshooting, check that the low beam headlights and high beam headlights illuminate correctly.
  • When replacing the combination meter assembly, always replace it with a new one. If a combination meter assembly which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in it will not match the information from the vehicle and a DTC may be stored.
  • When the forward recognition camera cannot correctly detect objects due to inclement weather such as thick fog or other visual obstructions, the automatic high beam indicator may not turn on and consequently the automatic high beam system may not operate.
  • Before performing troubleshooting, check that the pre-collision system DTCs are not output.
