System Components
- with the Principle of Operation
Driver’s Door Lock: The lock/unlock signals
from the driver’s door lock cylinder are input to
the driver’s door module from the two micro
switches on the lock cylinder. The driver’s door
switchblock module carries out the locking func-
tion of the driver’s door.
The windows and sunroof can be closed or
opened by holding the key in the lock/unlock
position (convenience closing/opening feature).
The signal to lock the remaining doors and fuel filler flap is passed over the P-Bus to the
GM III and passenger’s door module. The locking of the passenger’s door is carried out by
the passengers door module. The rear doors, luggage comparment and fuel flap locking
are carried out directly by the GM III. All four doors will be pulled into the double lock posi-
tion when locking from the driver’s door.
The control of the actuators in the front doors is through final stages in the door modules.
The rear doors, trunk and fuel filler flap actuators are controlled by internal relays in the GM
III. When locked, the GM III will not carry out any opening commands from the central lock-
ing button or luggage comparment interior release button.
Luggage Compartment Lock Cylinder (except E53/E39 Sport Wagon): The vehicle
can be locked/ unlocked (prior to 2000 MY) from the luggage compartment lock cylinder.
The lock/unlock micro switch inputs are processed in the GM III and the locking commands
are carried out.
The signal is passed over the P-Bus to the
door modules to lock/unlock the front
doors and the GM III locks the rear doors
and fuel filler flap.
All door actuators are placed in the double
lock position. Removing the key in the hor-
izontal position will activate the valet mode
and prevent the valet key from opening the
luggage comparment.
