DTC B242E-14: IG Circuit Short to Ground or Open [11/2023 - ]: Description

The headlight ECU sub-assembly operates using the power source voltage input from the IGR terminal and ECUB terminal.

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

The headlight ECU sub-assembly receives ignition switch ON signals from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication, compares the ignition switch ON signal and the power source voltage supply condition of the IGR terminal and monitors the result.
