Automatic Light Control Function does not Operate: Procedure

  1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL SENSOR) 
    1. Using the Techstream, read the Data List.
      MAIN BODY

      Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Illumination Rate Info Illuminance detected by automatic light control sensor/0 to 235600 lx Illuminance value displayed -

      OK

      Illuminance value is displayed normally.

    NG → See step   5 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH) 
    1. Using the Techstream, read the Data List.
      MAIN BODY

      Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Light Auto SW Headlight dimmer switch (AUTO) signal/ ON or OFF ON: Headlight dimmer switch (AUTO) on
      OFF: Headlight dimmer switch OFF
      -

      OK

      When the headlight dimmer switch operation is performed, the result will be the same as above.

    NG → See step   3 

    OK → REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU 

  3. INSPECT HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH 
    1. Remove the headlight dimmer switch. Refer to REMOVAL .

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      19 (A) - 12 (EL) Headlight dimmer switch (Light control switch) AUTO Below 1 Ω
      Headlight dimmer switch (Light control switch) off 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → See step   7 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH - MAIN BODY ECU AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the E14 switch connector.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E14-19 (A) - E1-21 (A) Always Below 1 Ω
      E14-12 (EL) - Body ground
      E14-19 (A) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL SENSOR - MAIN BODY ECU)

    GTY152891Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    1. Disconnect the E2 ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the F9 sensor connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E2-20 (CLTB) - F9-6 (CLTB) Always Below 1 Ω
      E2-19 (CLTS) - F9-5 (CLTS)
      E2-18 (CLTE) - F9-3 (CLTE)
      E2-20 (CLTB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E2-19 (CLTS) - Body ground
      E2-18 (CLTE) - Body ground

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK MAIN BODY ECU (CLTB VOLTAGE)

    GTY154194Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    1. Disconnect the E2 ECU connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      20 (CLTB) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → See step   8 

  7. REPLACE HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH. Refer to  REMOVAL 
  8. REPLACE AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL SENSOR. Refer to  REMOVAL
