S4 Combination switch

Location
The combination switch is mounted on the steering column. It is connected directly to the steering column tube module (N80).

Task
The combination switch serves the following functions:
Turn signaling, one-touch turn signaling, high and low beams, headlamp flasher, windshield wiper and windshield washer system.

Activation of the individual functions
^ Flash on and off
The turn signal is activated by pressing the combination switch upward for the right side and downward for the left side beyond the detent point respectively.
^ One-touch turn signaling
One-touch turn signaling is activated by briefly pressing the combination switch upward for the right side and downward for the left side as far as the detent point.
The turn signal flashes 3 times.
^ Main and low beams
The high beam is activated by pressing the combination switch forward. Switching over from high beam to low beam takes place by pulling back the combination switch to the zero position.
^ Headlight flasher
The headlamp flasher is activated for as long as the combination switch is pulled to the rear.
^ Windshield wiper
The windshield wipers are switched on by turning the front part of the combination switch.
- Position "1" activates the intermittent wipe.
- Position "2" activates continuous wiping at a low speed.
- Position "3" activates continuous wiping at a high speed.
^ Windshield washer system
The windshield washer system is switched on by pressing the combination switch in the axial direction. A brief operation in the axial direction activates touch wiping.
The signals are read in by the steering column tube module and made available via the interior CAN to each of the control units.
