Location 

There is one xenon light control unit on the underside of the left front lamp unit and one on the underside of the right front lamp unit. The xenon light control units are tightly screwed to the housings of the front lamp units. The xenon light control units are connected to the vehicle-side wiring harness via the front lamp units.

Task 

The xenon light control units work in a master/slave combination and communicate with each other via the front end CAN (CAN G). As the master the left xenon light control unit synchronizes the right xenon light control unit. The xenon light control units have the following tasks:

Reading in of sensors, pickups and signals 

The input factors are read in via the following connections:

Direct line 

The signals from the following sensors are read in by the left xenon light control unit via a direct line:

Front end CAN 

The signals are read in by the xenon light control units via the front end CAN.

The functions that use these signals are described in the individual function descriptions (see block diagram or function schematic).

Evaluation of input factors 

The input factors are evaluated by the integrated microprocessors and the relevant components are then actuated.

Controlling functions 

The following functions are realized by actuating the appropriate components:

Actuation of components 

Components are actuated via the following lines:

Direct line 

The left xenon light control unit actuates the following components via a direct line:

The right xenon light control unit actuates the following components via a direct line:

Left headlamp LIN 

The left xenon light control unit actuates the following component via the left headlamp LIN:

Right headlamp LIN 

The right xenon light control unit actuates the following component the right headlamp LIN:
