3309307 - E2510 COURTESY LIGHTS - Description

Description

The front courtesy light includes two courtesy lights which operate differently according to the position of the two control switches.With the switches in the right position, the lights come on, whilst in the left position their operation is completely excluded.

In the centre position the lights come on for a timed period when the doors are opened. Both rear interior lights contain a courtesy light that operates in different modes according to the position of the lens, which operates an internal switch.

• centre position: light comes on for a timed period when the doors are opened;
• positioned to one side: lights always off;
• positioned to the other side: light always on.

Courtesy light timing is controlled by control panel control unit sofware as follows:

When any of the four doors is opened, all front and rear courtesy lights are operated for a timed period.

• timed period of 8 seconds when a previously-opened door is reclosed; timing is suspended when the key is turned to MAR (this function allows the driver to enter the car and insert the key in the ignition)
• timed interval of 3 minutes if one of the doors is left open (this function prevents the battery going flat if the car is left with a door open)

When one of the other doors is opened, the current timer count is reset to zero.The courtesy light circuit is protected by a special junction unit fuse. one fuse also protects the supply line controlled by the ignition for the control unit in the control panel.
