Passenger-Side Side View Mirror Park Position, Function - GF88.79-P-2006RF

Model 205, 253 

with code 275 (Memory Package (Driver's Seat, Steering Column And Mirror)) 

Function requirements, general 

IMPORTANT The circuit 15 status is sent by the electronic ignition lock control unit (N73) over the interior CAN (CAN B) to the right front door control unit (N69/2).

The instrument cluster transmits the status "Passenger side side view mirror park position function" to the right front door control unit via user interface CAN (CAN HMI), electronic ignition lock control unit and interior CAN.

Passenger-side side view mirror park position, general 

It is possible to save a park position of the right side view mirror (M21/2) and call it up electrically when the car is shifted into reverse, allowing the driver to see the curb.

The passenger-side side view mirror park position function includes the following subfunctions:

Store park position function sequence 

To define the park position of the right side view mirror, first select right side view mirror. Then engage reverse gear, then the right side view mirror can be adjusted.

The right side view mirror is selected by actuating the right side view mirror adjustment switch (S20s8) in driver power window and side view mirror adjustment switch (S20).

The reverse gear engaged status is defined as follows:

The electronic ignition lock control unit uses the incoming information to generate the "Reverse gear engaged" status that is independent of the transmission variant and sends it via interior CAN to the right front door control unit.

The right side view mirror is adjusted by actuating the side view mirror adjustment switch (S20s9). The left front door control unit (N69/1) reads in the selection and requests for adjusting via left front door LIN (LIN B5) and transmits the corresponding requests to adjust the right side view mirror to the right front door control unit via the interior CAN.

The right front door control unit then actuates the vertical inclination adjustment actuator motor (M21/2m1) and horizontal inclination adjustment actuator motor (M21/2m2) accordingly.

The right front door control directly reads in the signals from the vertical inclination adjustment potentiometer (M21/2r2) and horizontal inclination adjustment potentiometer (M21/2r3), evaluates them and automatically stores the current position of the right side view mirror as the park position.

The park position of the right side view mirror can be stored additionally and manually via the left front memory switch function (S22s7) in the left front seat adjustment switch group (S22).

Storing the park position is performed by actuating the left front memory function switch. After briefly pressing the left front memory function switch and then pressing the side view mirror adjustment switch in any direction within t = 3 s, the current position of the right side view mirror is stored in the right front door control unit as park position. The left front door control unit reads in the corresponding status via left door LIN and transmits the request "Store passenger side view mirror park position" to the right front door control unit via the interior CAN.

IMPORTANT Manual adjustment of the right side view mirror in the park position is stored as new park position.

Function sequence for calling park position 

When the reverse gear is engaged for t > 0.6 s, the park position of the

right side view mirror is moved to.

The reverse gear engaged status is defined as follows:

The electronic ignition lock control unit uses the incoming information to generate the "Reverse gear engaged" status that is independent of the transmission variant and sends it via interior CAN to the right front door control unit.

The right front door control unit then actuates the vertical inclination adjustment actuator motor and horizontal inclination adjustment actuator motor until the park position is reached. The mirror glass position is recognized using the data of the vertical inclination adjustment actuator motor and horizontal inclination adjustment actuator motor.

Function sequence for calling drive position 

The right side view mirror is automatically moved back to the original position when one of the following conditions is fulfilled:

IMPORTANT The instrument cluster sends the vehicle speed to the left front door control unit via user interface CAN, electronic ignition lock control unit and interior CAN.

The driving position is resumed even when the right side view mirror is adjusted manually via the side view mirror adjustment switch.
