- If the steering sensor zero point calibration is not performed, the AFS may not operate correctly.
- A new headlight ECU sub-assembly LH cannot operate until the vehicle information is registered.
- After replacing the headlight ECU sub-assembly LH, it is necessary to perform vehicle information registration and initialization.
- Even if the headlight ECU sub-assembly RH is replaced with a new one, synchronize the vehicle information and initialization are not necessary.
-
Adjust the headlight aim after initializing the headlight ECU sub-assembly LH.

- When a malfunction is detected in the lighting system (w/ AFS), rear height control sensor sub-assembly LH signal initialization is impossible. Perform troubleshooting before initialization.
-
The lighting system (w/ AFS) uses the CAN communication system. First, confirm that there are no malfunctions in the CAN communication system. Refer to the How to Proceed with Troubleshooting procedure.
