Electrical System
The headlight in the Audi A8 ´03 combines both
design elements and innovative technology.
Headlight versions:
– Basic halogen version H7
Dynamic headlight range control is not
necessary with halogen headlights. The air
suspension provides compensation for static
load statuses and a thumbwheel is therefore
also not required.
– Bi-xenon version
– Bi-xenon version with integrated adaptive
light function
The headlight range control unit J431 is
responsible for providing static and dynamic
compensation for vehicle tilting as well as
actuation of the static adaptive light
function. The sensor signals of the 4-level air
suspension system are picked off by the
drive system CAN for control purposes. A
distinction is made between the two
gas-discharge lamp versions by way of
appropriate encoding (1 or 2) at the
headlight range control unit.

SSP282_056
HPV stands for high-performance bulbs,
which are extremely compact and have a far
longer service life. They have a 25 % lower
power input than conventional bulbs. Such
bulbs cannot be replaced by customers.
Both bi-xenon versions feature an ellipsoid
module with a moving screen to achieve both
dipped beam and main beam with xenon light.
The automatic dynamic headlight range control
represents a more advanced version of the
standard automatic control system. It provides
headlight tilt compensation not only for various
load statuses but also as a dynamic function
reacting to differences in running gear
inclination caused by acceleration and
deceleration.
