Overview Of The Signal Paths For The Adaptive Headlights: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 37 other vehicles, including the 2006 BMW 330Ci, 2006 BMW 325Ci, 2005 BMW M3, 2005 BMW 330xi, and 2005 BMW 330i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The instrument cluster control unit is the gateway (i.e. data interface) between the PT CAN data bus and the K bus. Signals from the EGS control unit and the DSC control unit are sent to the adaptive headlights control unit via the instrument cluster control unit.
The signal paths between the individual control units are represented in the following illustration:
