Adaptive light
The adaptive light works as a dynamic corner-
sensitive headlight. With the dynamic cornering
headlight, the headlight projection module is
pivoted horizontally by an integrated motor.
The headlight lenses and the bracket do not turn.
The pivot angle is approx. 15° on the inner curve
side and 7.5° on the outer curve side.
The various pivot angles have advantages in that
they provide better lighting for corner routes.
In this case, the inner-curve module pivots in twice
as much as the outer-curve module.
This achieves the maximum possible illumination
width with homogeneous light distribution.
No pivoting when vehicle is stationary
The projection modules are not pivoted at driving
speeds of < 6 km/h.
The pivot angle essentially depends on the steering
wheel angle at speeds of more than 10 km/h.
This complies with the legal requirement that the
headlights must not be pivoted when the vehicle is
stationary. At the same time, a slight transition to
headlight pivoting occurs during acceleration from
idle when the steering lock remains constant.

Internal structure
The pivot angle is monitored by an inductive pickup
in the pivot module. The pickup value is evaluated
immediately in the relevant power module for
headlights as a pulse width-modulated signal.
If the motor or pickup does not function, the power
module sends an error message to the control unit
for headlight range control J431.
This is communicated to the driver in a display in
dash panel insert J285.
The same lamps that are used in the bi-xenon
headlight are also used in the adaptive light
headlight.
CAN Communication
The values marked with (*) are used as input
variables in calculating the pivot angle.
All other input variables are only needed for
dynamic headlight range control.

Signal and data exchange
The same sensors that are used for dynamic
headlight range control for bi-xenon headlights are
also used as level sensors. They send a pulse
width-modulated signal to the control unit for
headlight range control. Data is exchanged between
t h e c o n t ro l u n i t fo r h e ad l i gh t ra n g e c o n tro l J 4 3 1 an d
the power modules in the headlight on the left J667
and right J668 via a 500-kBaud CAN.
Show Room function
The Show Room function can be used to pivot the
headlights by moving the steering wheel – even
when the vehicle is stationary – for presentation.
The function can be adapted using the diagnosis
tester in the control unit for headlight beam
adjustment.
If the vehicle is then driven at more than 30 km/h,
the function is permanently disabled. The function
can be switched on again at any time using the
diagnosis tester.

Back lights
Different tail lights are used in the Audi A6 ’05,
depending on the equipment variant.
This is differentiated into the following:
–Basic variant ECE
–High variant ECE
–High variant SAE
Basic variant ECE
The tail light in the basic variant only uses lamps
with a 15-mm bayonet socket for the lights.
There are three sections for tail light activation.
To ensure that the different-sized sections look from
the outside to be equally illuminated, the central
control unit for the convenience system J393
activates each lamp with a different dimming ratio.
The two inner lamps in each back light are also used
as the brake light.
The outer lamp functions as the "rear fog light".
Ifthe rear fog light is on, only the inner lamp is
active as the brake light.

High variant ECE
These back lights are installed if bi-xenon headlights
at least are fitted as the front headlights.
The external feature of the High back lights is the
use of LEDs for the brake light.
The LEDs, which are fixed in the reflector housing,
are activated by two contacts from the lamp
bracket.
The rear fog light is located at the bottom of the
back light. Here, the lamp on the driver’s side is
used as the rear fog light, while the lamp on the
passenger’s side serves as the reversing light.
This means that the same lamp bracket can be used
for both the High back light and the Basic back light.

High variant SAE
The back lights for the North American market have
standard LED units. The LED units are used for the
indicator and brake light function.
The three sections underneath are for the tail light
lamps.
The S AE back lights have tw o rear fog lights and tw o
reversing lights.
LED unit diagnosis
The failure of an LED is detected by the electronics
in the lamp housing. All LEDs are then switched off
so that the central control unit for the convenience
system J393 can set the relevant fault memory
entry.

The control unit in dash panel insert J285 is
available in two variants.
The High-Line variant with colour display only
comes in vehicles with adaptive cruise control.
As in the A8 '03, the anti-drive-off feature and
gateway are no longer integrated into the dash
panel insert.
The handy position of the rotary light switch has
meant that the indicator lights for dipped beam
headlight, fog light and rear fog light could also be
fitted directly in the rotary light switch.
Likewise, the buttons for instrument lighting, the
auto-check system and the daily mileage counter
are now positioned to the right, next to the dash
panel insert, in the button module (operating
buttons for dash panel insert E493).

Lamp failure
If an exterior lighting lamp fails, a symbol appears
in the central display indicating which lamp has
failed. If you now press the Check button, the failed
lamp is also described by a text message in the
central display.
Outside temperature indicator
The instrument cluster evaluates both the
temperature sensor for outside temperature G17
and the outside temperature signal from the
Climatronic control unit J255. The lower of the two
values is displayed.

Functions
The main function of the control unit for on-board
power supply is to read in switch information and
activate power outputs.
It is familiar from the Audi A8 ‘03 and has been
adapted to new functionalities in the Audi A6 ´05.
Master functions
The following master functions are implemented in
the control unit for on-board power supply.
– External lighting control
– LIN master for the control unit for
wiper motor J400
– LIN master for the sensor for rain and
light detection G397 (for details of function,
see Sensor for rain and light detection)
Stand-by master function
If the central control unit for the convenience
system J393 fails, the control unit for on-board
power supply J519 takes over the stand-by master
function. It sends the information for direction
indicators to the CAN bus.

Emergency function
The software for the control unit for on-board power
supply can be used to implement emergency
functions. If a fault is detected in the rotary light
switch or if there is an open circuit in the line to the
rotary light switch, the control unit for on-board
power supply switches the driving light on.
Other functionalities
In addition to the master functions, the following
functions are also available in the control unit for
on-board power supply.
– Steering column adjustment
– Footwell lighting
– Selector gate lighting
– Direction indicator control, front and side
– Signal horn activation
– Windscreen washer pump activation
– Steering column memory
Versi on s
There are three functional versions of the control
unit for on-board power supply:
– Low-Line version (with no electric steering
column adjustment, no xenon, no daytime
driving lights)
– Mid-Line version (with no electric steering
column adjustment, with xenon and daytime
driving lights)
– High-Line version (with electric steering column
adjustment, xenon and daytime driving lights)
Installation position
The control unit for on-board power supply is
installed on the left behind the dash panel. It can be
accessed by removing the footwell cover.
