Abstract
When a headlight driver input indicates an AUTO mode, a VCIB accepts a headlight mode request from an ADK. The VCIB identifies a current headlight driver input. The VCIB reads first correspondence information and checks the identified headlight driver input and the accepted headlight mode request against the first correspondence information to determine an illumination status of a headlight.
