General information

Function

The automatic headlight range control system corrects the angle of the dipped beam at the start of a journey/with vehicle stationary.

One level sender each at the front and rear axle signals the compression of the vehicle suspension. In addition, a signal proportional to vehicle speed is processed by the ABS control unit.

The control unit evaluates these signals and actuates the headlight range controller when the lights are on.

The headlight range control system consists of the following:

  • ◆ Headlight range control unit -J431
  • ◆ Rear left vehicle level sender -G76
  • ◆ Front left vehicle level sender -G78
  • ◆ Headlight range control motor, left -V48
  • ◆ Headlight range control motor, right -V49

Note:

If faults occur in the system, the driver is informed accordingly by a warning symbol in the dash panel insert centre display.
