CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU illuminates the front dome light and
the rear dome light according to the following signals:

• Ignition switch (IG1)

• Key reminder switch

• Front door switch (LH)

• All door switches

• Driver’s door lock actuator switch

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the front dome light and the rear dome light do not
illuminate normally, the dome light bulb(s) may be
burned out or the input circuit system from the
switches, the power supply lines to the switches or
the ETACS-ECU may be defective (refer to "CIR-
CUIT OPERATION"). Alternatively, the delay-off
function may be set to "0 second" by using the con-
figuration function.

.
