Bi-xenon headlights
Bi-xenon headlights are installed with the
"XenonPlus" option.
The following lamps are fitted in the bi-xenon
headlight:
– A blue W5W lamp for the parking light.
The colour of the parking light thus corresponds
to the xenon light.
– A D2S lamp for high beam headlight, headlight
flasher and dipped beam headlight. The covers
fo r d i p p ed b e am a re al s o a c t i v at e d fo r h i gh b ea m
and headlight flasher operation.
– A P21W lamp for the daytime driving light.
This comes on dimmed to 90 %.
– A PY21W bulb coated with a reflecting layer of
silver is used as the direction indicator light.
Only longlife lamps are used. A super-longlife
lamp is used as the daytime driving light.
The following country-specific variants exist:
– No daytime driving lamp is fitted for Japan.
– 3457NA flasher lamps are used for USA and
Canada.
The headlights are changed over to left-hand drive
via a lever on the projection module.
A dynamic headlight range control system is
installed for bi-xenon headlights.
The dynamic headlight range control system uses
the well-known level sensors. This send the
information about the vehicle level to the control
unit for headlight range control J431 via a pulse
width-modulated signal.
The same level sensor is fitted on both the front and
rear axle.
Headlights are also available with dynamic
corner-sensitive lights.

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.

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.

A combined sensor for rain and light detection is
used for the first time in the Audi A6 ’05.
The sensor includes a light-control assistant
function, which relieves the driver of the job of
having to switch the driving light on manually, as
well as a wiper control function, which depends on
the amount of moisture on the front windscreen.
The development goal here was to integrate these
functions in a compact housing.
The sensor is connected as a LIN slave to the control
unit for on-board power supply J519.
Installation position
The sensor for rain and light detection is located on
the windscreen in the attachment base of the
interior mirror.
Tasks of the light sensor
– Switch the driving light on and off automatically
– Activate the Coming Home/Leaving Home
function
– Day/night detection for rain sensor
Switch-on conditions
The light sensor supplies the control unit for
on-board power supply with information for
switching on the driving light in the following
situations:
–Dawn/dusk
–Darkness
– Entering/travelling through tunnels
– Travelling through forests

Function of the light sensor
In order to detect certain ambient conditions, such
as tree-lined avenues or routes through tunnels, the
light sensor registers the light intensity in two
areas.
The global field describes the direct brightness on
the vehicle, while the fore-field describes the
lighting conditions in the section of road lying
ahead of the vehicle. This is activated using the
"Auto" setting on the rotary light switch.
Tasks of the rain sensor
The following functions are implemented,
depending on the amount of water on the
windscreen:
– Switch the wiper on and off automatically at
seven different speeds
– Activate the driving light when it is raining
Activation
The rain sensor is activated by positioning the wiper
stalk to the "Intermittent" setting. The driver can
then set four sensitivity ranges using the regulator
for windscreen wiper intermittent operation.
A reference wiper function (wiper action when the
rain/light sensor is activated) is no longer necessary
with this system. This means that the wiper stalk
can always remain at the "Intermittent" setting.
For safety reasons, however, the rain sensor
operation is only activated in this case when a
driving speed of more than 16 km/h is reached, or
when the sensitivity on the regulator for windscreen
wiper intermittent operation is changed.
