Models 202 (except 202.07 /08 /18) as of 1.6.97, 208, 210.081 (except 208.4), 210 (except 210.2 /081) as of 1.3.97
The opening and closing of the doors switches the interior lights on and off. This function can be activated or deactivated using the door contact On and Off switch (N70s3) . Each press of the switch causes a change in state between active or inactive. The state of the function is stored internally in the overhead control panel control module (N70) and sent as a CAN message. If the function is not active, the door contacts will not exert any influence on the interior lights.
The overhead control panel control module (N70) controls the lights' switch-on period.
The exit lights are controlled from each of the respective door control modules , the front dome lamp (N70e1) from the overhead control panel control module (N70) and the rear dome lamp (E15/3) from the pneumatic control unit (PSE) (A37) .
The table below shows how the lights in the passenger compartment respond to each actuation of the door contact switch .
Only the exit lights on opened doors are actuated.
The switching on of the lights has priority over switching them off. Example: if at circuit 15 "On" the driver's door is closed, while the front passenger-side door is open, the front dome lamp (N70e1) will remain on.
