Vehicle electricsAdditional brake light
Note | t
| Failure of LEDs in additional brake lights |
| t
| The individual LEDs (light-emitting diodes) in the additional (high) brake light are located together in groups of 3 LEDs and are supplied with current in groups. |
| t
| Due to the failure of individual LEDs, the intact LEDs of the group in question are placed under increased strain and it must therefore be anticipated that further LED will soon fail as well. |
| t
| If an LED group (3 individual light-emitting diodes) fails, the legal light values of the ECE ruling (ECE = Economic Commission for Europe) are still complied with. |
| t
| If more than 3 individual LEDs fail, the legal light values of the ECE ruling (ECE = Economic Commission for Europe) are no longer complied with and the light for the additional (high) brake must be replaced. |
