MODEL 207.3/4 as of model year 2014 with CODE 640 (Headlamps, LED, dynamic, SAE, right-side traffic)
MODEL 207.3/4 as of model year 2014 with CODE 641 (Headlamps, LED, dynamic, left-side traffic)
MODEL 207.3/4 as of model year 2014 with CODE 642 (Headlamps, LED, dynamic, right-side traffic)
Location
The left front actuation module, LED exterior lighting is mounted on the bottom of the left front lamp unit. The left right front actuation module, LED exterior lighting is located on the bottom of the right front lamp unit.
Task
The front LED exterior lights actuation modules are responsible for the following tasks:
- Provision and monitoring of operating voltage and operating current of actuated LEDs
- Thermal management (temperature monitoring and fan control)
- Actuation of the LEDs in the corresponding front lamp unit to output the following light functions:
- Low beam
- High beam
The front LED exterior lights actuation modules actuate the LEDs located in the front lamp unit to implement the individual light functions.
The left front exterior lights LED actuation module actuates the left front Vario LED lamp unit (E1e22) directly.
The right front exterior lights LED actuation module actuates the right front Vario LED lamp unit (E2e22) directly.
The front LED exterior lights actuation modules are supplied with voltage from circuit 30L by the front SAM control unit with fuse and relay module (N10/1). The individual light functions are output after applying voltage at the respective input channel of the front LED exterior lights actuation module. This occurs through the front SAM control unit.
The left front LED exterior lights actuation module communicates via left headlamp LIN (LIN G1) with the left headlamp control unit (E1n9). The right front LED exterior lights actuation module communicates via right headlamp LIN (LIN G2) with the right headlamp control unit (E2n9).
Identified malfunctions of individual components are stored in a nonvolatile memory. The front LED exterior lights actuation modules can be diagnosed using the corresponding headlamp control unit.
The front actuation modules, LED exterior lighting are bolted to the front lamp unit housings. The front exterior lights LED actuation modules are connected to the vehicle-side wiring harness through the connector on each front lamp unit.
Thermal management
The front lamp units are each equipped with a temperature sensor for each light function, with which the heat development in the area of the actuated LEDs is recorded. The front LED exterior lights actuation modules evaluate the signals of two temperature sensors each.
If the LEDs or the plastic housing of the front lamp units threaten to overheat as a consequence of high outside temperatures or high actuation currents, the front LED exterior lights actuation modules reduce the actuation currents for the LEDs and thereby lower the heat development.
In order to also cool down the LEDs or the plastic housing of the front lamp units, the left front exterior lights LED actuation module actuates the left front lamp unit fan motor 2 (E1m5) and the right front exterior lights LED actuation module actuates the right front lamp unit fan motor 2 (E2m5) directly.
The fan motors are either actuated immediately or with a time delay.
The actuation depends on which light function is active.
The active ventilation by means of actuation of the fan motors is used simultaneously for de-icing the front lamp units at low outside temperatures.
