Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2025 Repair Manual: Open in IG Circuit (B242E)

DESCRIPTION

The No. 1 headlight ECU sub-assembly operates using the power source voltage input from the IG terminal and ECUB terminal.

The IG terminal power source voltage is supplied by turning the IG1 relay to ON.

The No. 1 headlight ECU sub-assembly receives engine switch on (IG) signals from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication, compares the engine switch on (IG) signal and the power source voltage supply condition of the IG terminal and monitors the result.
