Wheel speed sensors
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Each of the wheel speed sensors measures the wheel circumferential velocity of an individual wheel. The ICM control unit (ICM: Integrated Chassis Management) calculates the driving speed from it. The high-beam headlights are switched on or switched off if a predefined driving speed is exceeded or dropped below. The specification is in line with the stipulated local regulations.
