Description

Headlight (RH) circuit malfunction

Detection condition

• The adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module detected an open circuit in the headlight (RH) circuit during the headlight LO on control with the ignition switched ON (engine off or on).

Fail-safe

• Control of the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) is continued.

• Control of the headlight auto leveling system is continued.

Possible cause

• DTCs are stored in the electrical supply unit (ESU).

• Headlight LO (RH) circuit malfunction

• Front combination light (RH) connector or terminal malfunction

• Adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module connector or terminal malfunction

• Short to ground in wiring harness between adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module terminal H and front combination light (RH) terminal N

• Open circuit in wiring harness between adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module terminal H and front combination light (RH) terminal N

• Front combination light (RH) malfunction

• Adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module malfunction

Step

Inspection

Action

1

• Retrieve the electrical supply unit (ESU) DTCs using the M-MDS.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT (ESU)].)

• Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT (ESU)].)

No

Go to the next step.

2

• Switch the ignition off.

• Disconnect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Disconnect the front combination light (RH) connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.

3

• Disconnect the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.

4

• Verify that the front combination light (RH) and adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module connectors are disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between front combination light (RH) terminal N (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module terminal H and front combination light (RH) terminal N.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.

Go to Step 7.

No

Go to the next step.

5

• Verify that the front combination light (RH) and adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module connectors are disconnected.

• Inspect the wiring harness for continuity between adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module terminal H (wiring harness-side) and front combination light (RH) terminal N (wiring harness-side).

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module terminal H and front combination light (RH) terminal N.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 7.

6

• Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

• Connect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Clear the DTC for the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module using the M-MDS.

  (See CLEARING DTC [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE].)

• Operate the light switch to the HEAD position and the dimmer switch to the LO position.

• Retrieve the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module DTCs using the M-MDS.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE].)

• Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Replace the front combination light (RH), then go to the next step.

(See FRONT COMBINATION LIGHT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

No

Go to Step 8.

7

• Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

• Connect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Clear the DTC for the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module using the M-MDS.

  (See CLEARING DTC [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE].)

• Operate the light switch to the HEAD position and the dimmer switch to the LO position.

• Retrieve the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module DTCs using the M-MDS.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE].)

• Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Repeat the inspection from Step 1.

• If the malfunction recurs, replace the adaptive front lighting system (AFS) control module.

  (See ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

8

• Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE].)

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
