Hi-Beam Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation








The ECU related to the headlight and taillight and various control functions are as follows.





Headlights And High-beam Indicator Light:






Headlights and high-beam indicator light
The front ECU lights up the headlight (LOW) when the signal from the column switch to the headlight switch is in the "ON" state and the built-in head light relay (LOW) is in the ON state. If the dimmer switch is turned on while the headlight relay (LOW) is on, the front-ECU turns on the headlight relay (HIGH), causing the high-beam headlights to illuminate.

What's more, ETACS-ECU lights up the high beam indicator light when the acknowledgment signal from the front ECU is in the "HI-BEAM ACK" state or the head light switch signal from the column switch is in the "PASS" state.

NOTE: This item only considers the headlight light up function and doesn't take into consideration the other functions. In actual driving, the headlights may be turned off due to the headlight automatic shut-down function. For the details of the headlight automatic shut-down function, refer to its Section.
