175465 - HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT CONTROL UNIT (CAF)

COMPOSITION

The headlamp alignment control unit is an electronic control unit which determines the correct angle for the front light beam. It is housed under the floor, in the right front section.

Description of behaviour: "Left and right headlamp stepping motor"

When the dipped headlamps are switched on and if the vehicle is stationary, the "headlamp alignment control unit" (CAF) implements the stepping motors for the two headlamps.

Left/right rear light cluster control unit operation (CFS/CFD)

The left and right rear light cluster control units (CFS and CFD) are electronic components inside the rear light clusters with the function of operating and checking the LEDs for the side lights, brake lights and direction indicators. The management of the diganosis for the light clusters takes place on a serial line with the NBC.
