Location 

The left headlamp control unit is arranged at the bottom of the left front lamp unit.

The right headlamp control unit is arranged at the bottom of the right front lamp unit.

The headlamp control units are tightly screwed to the housing of the respective front lamp units. The headlamp control units are connected to the vehicle-side wiring harness via the front lamp units.

Task 

The headlamp control units work in a master/slave combination and communicate with one another via chassis CAN 2 (CAN E2).

As the master, the left headlamp control unit synchronizes the right headlamp control unit.

The headlamp control units have the following tasks:

Reading in of sensors, pickups and signals 

The input factors are read in via the following connections:

LIN (with code (640) SAE dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic or code (641) Dynamic LED headlamp for left-hand traffic or code (642) Dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic) 

The left front actuation module, LED exterior lighting is read in by the left headlamp control unit via left headlamp LIN (LIN G1).

The right front actuation module, LED exterior lighting is read in by the right headlamp control unit via right headlamp LIN (LIN G2).

Chassis CAN 2 

The signals are read in by the headlamp control unit via chassis CAN 2.

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 that have been read in are evaluated by the integrated microprocessor and the relevant components are then actuated.

Controlling functions 

The following functions are realized by actuating the appropriate components:

Actuation of components 

The actuation of the components takes place via the following connections:

Direct line (without code (640) SAE dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic and without code (641) Dynamic LED headlamp for left-hand traffic and without code (642) Dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic) 

The following components are actuated by the left headlamp control unit via a direct line:

The following components are actuated by the left headlamp control unit via a direct line:

Direct line (with code (640) SAE dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic or code (641) Dynamic LED headlamp for left-hand traffic or code (642) Dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic) 

The following components are actuated by the left headlamp control unit via direct lines:

The following components are actuated by the right headlamp control unit via direct lines:

LIN (with code (640) SAE dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic or code (641) Dynamic LED headlamp for left-hand traffic or code (642) Dynamic LED headlamp for right-hand traffic) 

The left front LED exterior lights actuation module is actuated by the left headlamp control unit via left headlamp LIN.

The right front LED exterior lights actuation module is actuated by the right headlamp control unit via right headlamp LIN.
