Notes on MOST bus
In addition to the CAN bus, the fibre optic data bus „MOST bus“ is used.
A „fibre optic cable“ is used as the connecting cable. The fibre optic cables are fitted in corrugated tubes for protection.
Renew the complete fibre optic cable whenever possible.
The end faces of the connectors must not become dirty.
   
If connectors are unplugged: fit a protective cap for cable connector -VAS 6223/9-.
When installing the fibre optic cables, be sure to observe the minimum bending radius of 25 mm. Do not crush or kink the fibre optic cables.
Repairing fibre optic cables → Electrical system; General information; Rep. gr.97.
