Headlamp switch-off delay, function - GF80.20-P-2003GZ

MODEL 164.1/8 up to Model Year 2008 

Function 

The headlamp switch-off delay serves to illuminate the area surrounding the vehicle after exiting the vehicle.

The time interval can be adjusted in the instrument cluster (A1).

IMPORTANT The time interval can be set in increments of of 15 s, from t = 0 s to t = 60 s.

Function requirements: 

Function sequence 

When changing from circuit 61 ON to circuit 15 OFF, the headlamp switch-off delay function is activated for t = 60s, if the function prerequisites are fulfilled. The time is independent of the time interval set on the instrument cluster.

When a door or the rear-end door is opened, the time for the headlamp switch-off delay is restarted. This applies each time a door is opened within the expiration time. When the last door is closed, the time interval selected in the instrument cluster is activated.

If the headlamp switch-off delay is active, the front SAM control unit (N10) transmits the corresponding signal to the instrument cluster, whereupon the warning buzzer (A1h1) and circuit 58d are suppressed.

When the parking lamp or the low beam is only activated due to the rotary light switch in the background of the headlamp switch-off delay, the warning buzzer remains activated.

The headlamp switch-off delay activates the following lamps:

Function abort 

When the ignition is switched on and off, the headlamp switch-off delay function is interrupted until the next change from circuit 61 ON to circuit 15 OFF.

IMPORTANT When the anti-theft alarm system (with code (551) Anti-theft alarm system (ATA)) is triggered, the headlamp switch-off delay is also interrupted.

Deactivate function 

When the time interval is set to "0 s" in the instrument cluster the headlamp switch-off delay feature is deactivated.
