Door Contact Hall Sensor: Also included in the drivers door actuator is a third hall effect
sensor. This sensor signals the door open/closed status to the GM. This sensor replaces
the door jamb mechanical switch of previous systems. The rotary latch plate position acti-
vates the door contact hall sensor.
• When the door latch is closed, current flow
through the sensor is <5 mA (0).
• When the door is open, current flow through
the sensor is >12 mA (1).
The passenger side front door and both rear
door lock actuators only include this hall effect
sensor (hall sensor 3). Hall sensors 1 & 2 are
not required.
Trunk Lid Close (E38 SCA)/Tailgate and Window Latching System (E39/E53): The
tailgate/trunk lid is opened by any of the three input signals: FZV, remote button and unlock
switch pad (push - trunk lock cylinder E38).
These inputs request the rear latch
actuator control circuit to be
switched to ground (exception:
presence of road speed signal,
key on with FZV request.)
The rear latch actuator unlatches
the mechanism and signals the
GM of the open latch status. The
SCA motor rotates the striker
180
O. Feed-back signalling stops
the motor. E38 - When closing the
trunk lid the trunk latch micro-
switch signals the GM to activate
the SCA motor to pull the lid
down.
Rear window unlatching is requested by the rear window switch ground signal. This signal
initiates activation of the rear window actuator relay control circuit which activates the rear
window actuator. The actuator unlatches the mechanism opening the window. The latch
simultaneously provides an open window signal for the rear window wiper motor module
as well as an interior light on request (via the wiper module).

Power Windows/Sunroof
Purpose of the System
The features of the power windows and sunroof system include:
• One-touch operation in both directions (up/
down) on all four windows.
• The cable design window regulator is used
for all windows.
• Anti-trap detection is through the use of the
pressure sensitive finger guard.
• The control of the front window motors is
carried out in the respective door modules.
• The control of the rear windows is carried
out in the GM III.
• The switch block/module on the driver’s
door panel controls all four windows and the
rear window lock out feature.
System Components
- with the Principle of Operation
The signals from the switch block pass through
the driver’s door via the P-Bus and on to the
GM III and passengers door module.
Each window switch has four positions.
Two for the standard mode of operation:
• Push to first detent and hold to raise/lower
the window (1).
Two for the one-touch mode:
• Push to second detent and quickly release
(quick strike) to automatically raise/lower
the window (2).

Mirror
Principle of Operation
The output stages and memory storage of mirror positions is handled by the respective
door modules. The positioning of the mirrors is signaled from the driver’s door switch
block/module. The signal passes over the P-Bus to the passenger’s door module.
The memory/recall for the driver’s mirror comes directly into the door module from the
memory switch. The operation for the passenger’s side mirror is carried out over the P-Bus
from the driver’s door module to the passenger’s door module.
The memory positions are stored in each respective module. The memory position is rec-
ognized by the feedback potentiometers located on each mirror motor.
The reverse gear tilt feature for the passenger’s mirror is signaled from the GM, over the P-
bus, when reverse is selected and the mirror switch is set for the driver’s side.
Mirror heating is controlled by each respective door module. The GM receives the outside
temperature from the IKE and passes it to the door modules. The “ON” time for mirror heat-
ing is adjusted based on the outside temperature.
A pulsed heating cycle is used for the mirrors based on the outside temperature.

System Components
Electro-Hydraulic Solenoid: The solenoid regulates the
amount of power steering assist for the servotronic system. It
contains a needle valve that can restrict oil flow. When current
is applied, the needle valve closes against spring pressure to
restrict the oil flow.
With maximum current applied, the valve is closed. This is the
condition of the valve for slow speed driving and parking.
Without current applied, the needle valve is held open by
spring pressure. This is the condition of the solenoid during
higher driving speeds.
Electro-Hydraulic Solenoid Control: The GM monitors the road speed input and sup-
plies the electro-hydraulic solenoid with power. The road speed signal “A” is supplied from
the IKE (and K-Bus) on E38 vehicles and from the DSC Control Module on E39/E53 vehi-
cles.
The solenoid is pulse width modulated for control and varies the amount of assist based
on the road speed. The maximum assist is available while parking and driving at slow
speeds.

Principle of Operation
Control logic (example E38) includes:
• Servotronic control electronics active with KL R being switched "ON" - ensure no delay
in operation if engine is started and vehicle is immediately driven.
• Plausibility check for speed signal - the control electronics monitor both the Speed sig-
nal "A" from the IKE and the vehicle speed signal on the K-Bus.
• The ability to detect both acceleration and deceleration from the two speed signals - the
speed signal from the IKE is updated every two seconds.
• The servotronic assist is reduced gradually when the vehicle is under acceleration.
• The servotronic assist is adopted to the lower direct reading during decel or braking.
Electric/electronic failures with the servotronic system will result in the following:
• Power/electronic failure of the control module or solenoid - steering assist the same as
high speed driving (increased effort).
• Vehicle speed signal missing - control module retains the assist mode in effect when the
speed signal was lost.
• Speed signal implausible - steering assist the same as high speed driving (increased
effort).
The GM also provides the diagnostic “gateway” to the Servotronic status and Component
Activation via the DISplus/MoDiC.
