IMPORTANT The cable lug to the fuse box (40) should be crimped to the two supply lines (red).

  1. Route the branch-off line of the supply lines (red) of the wiring harness for the illuminated door sill molding (1) to the rear signal and acquisition module (SAM).
  2. Route both branch-off lines of the illuminated door sill molding wiring harness (1) to the door contact switches.

    IMPORTANT The longer branch-off line is routed to the left door contact switch.

  3. Guide branch-off line with brown and black/red wire (br, sw/rt) from the illuminated door sill molding wiring harness (1) to the right door contact switch (S17/4) and secure to existing wires.
  4. Tie up standard wiring harness of right door contact switch (S17/4) approx. 60 mm and expose the brown and gray/black wire (br, gr/sw).
  5. Using a cable clamping connector, connect the brown cable (br) from the wiring harness for the illuminated door sill molding to the brown cable (br) of the production wiring harness. Using a cable clamping connector, connect the black/red cable (sw/rt) to the grey/black connector (gr/sw)
