167540 - I04 SIDE LIGHTS / NO. PLATE LIGHT AND DIPPED HEADLAMPS NOT WORKING IN AUTO MODE

The side / no. plate lights and dipped headlamps are not working with the exterior lights switch selector (C.L.E.) in the AUTO position
the side / no. plate lights and dipped headlamps come on directly throught a signal sent by the Body Computer Node; with the C.L.E. selector in the AUTO position, the control to come on is managed completely automatically via the dusk sensor; the sensitivity of the dusk sensor can be adjusted by means of a special control located near the C.L.E.; this signal is supplied to the Connect which makes it available to the Body Computer Node via the B-CAN. If there is a fault with the dusk sensor and the C.L.E. in AUTO mode the Body Computer Node switches on the Side / No. Plate lights and the Dipped Headlamps
