Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Welcome/Farewell Strategy
The welcome/farewell strategy controlled by the SJB has been modified to a new strategy. When the vehicle has been unlocked using the unlock button on the IKT key, the new strategy listed below is activated. Also when the vehicle is locked using the IKT key, the new strategy below is activated. This strategy is not used by the SJB if the vehicle is opened using a key in the door lock cylinder or if the vehicle is exited without a button press. Locking (or unlocking) the doors with the door lock switch also does not affect this strategy.
- Turn signals provide a 400 ms flash when the lock button is pressed, when the unlock button is pressed there is one long flash
- Illuminated entry has park lamps, puddle lamps, interior lights and backlighting on (no headlamps)
- Illuminated exit has park lamps, interior lights, backlighting on with the headlamps and puddle lamps off
Refer to the following table:
| Feature | Turn Signals | Headlamps | Park Lamps | Puddle Lamps | Interior (Courtesy) Lamps | Backlighting (Dimmable) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Locking feedback lighting | Lock causes a single 400 ms flash. Unlock causes a single long flash. | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| Illuminated entry (includes perimeter lighting) | N/A | Off | On | On | On | On |
| Interior (courtesy) lighting | N/A | Off | On | On | On | On |
| Interior (courtesy) lighting delay | N/A | Off | On | On | On | On |
