Sprinter 2500 V6-3.0L DSL Turbo VIN 45 (2007)
Console: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
What is commonly known as the overhead console on most vehicles is replaced by the Roof Control Module (RCM) for the Sprinter. The RCM can also
be referred to as the Overhead Control Panel (OCP) control unit or DBE). The RCM is integral to the optional OCP (1) located on the headliner between
the front driver and passenger seats just behind the upper windshield opening header. The OCP is available in multiple configurations, which vary from
vehicle to vehicle depending upon the optional equipment in the vehicle. Besides the RCM, the OCP may include the following features:
-
Automatic Interior Lighting and Reading Lamp Switches (2)
-
Eyeglasses Storage Compartment or optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) Front Interior Motion Sensor (4)
-
Front Dome and Reading Lamp Lenses (3)
-
Hands-Free Microphone for Telephone (6)
-
Power Sliding Sunroof Switch (5)
The RCM and OCP housings, the lamp lenses and the push buttons are constructed of molded plastic. Each push button has a smooth finish and is clearly
identified with the appropriate text or International Control and Display Symbol icons. Several of the push buttons feature Light Emitting Diode (LED)
units to provide panel lamps dimmer controlled back lighting for visibility at night, but these LED units are integral to the circuit board within the RCM
and are not serviceable.
