Diagnosis and Testing

NOTE:
NOTE:The generic electronic module (GEM) forms part of the central junction box (CJB).
NOTE:
NOTE:If the generic electronic module (GEM) or the gas discharge headlamp control module is changed, the new one must be reinitialised. For this purpose, the vehicle-specific data is read out of the module to be replaced using WDS and is transferred to the new module. REFER to:
Module Configuration (418-01 Module Configuration, General Procedures),
Generic Electronic Module (GEM) (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Removal and Installation).
NOTE:
NOTE:Before reading out the vehicle-specific data, remake all the electrical connections to the module to be removed, so that communication between the module and WDS is ensured.

Component Tests

Headlight switch

  1. Test the resistance of the headlamp levelling control switch:
    • SWITCH ON dipped beam.
    • Measure the resistance at the headlamp switch between pin 8, component side, and pin 10, component side.
    • Is a resistance of 4.7 kOhms registered?
      • 1. If yes, go to 2.

        2. If no, RENEW the headlamp switch.

  1. Test the resistance of the headlamp levelling control switch during adjustment:
    • Measure the resistance at the headlamp switch between pin 8, component side, and pin 1, component side.
    • Adjust the headlamp levelling control switch from min. to max.
    • Does the resistance measured change smoothly from 0 to 4.7 kOhm?
      • 1. If yes, the headlamp levelling control switch is OK.

        2. If no, RENEW the headlamp switch.
