Rain/Light Sensor




Rain/Light Sensor

The Rain/Light Sensor is attached to the windshield. It records:

- The rain intensity for controlling the wiper intervals
- The surrounding and frontal brightness for controlling "automatic-light control"




2 additional optical sensors are evaluated in the RLS.

If there is a switch-on requirement, this is transmitted by a K-CAN message to the Light Module.

If the rotary knob light switch is in the "automatic light control" position, the headlights lights are activated and an LED on the light switch is switched on.
