Headlight Washing (if equipped):When the headlights are on, the headlight washer
pump is activated with the first activation of the windshield washer pump. It is only activat-
ed again after five succesive windshield washer cycles during the same ignition key on cycle
(rest function). The GM recognises headlights on via K-Bus signalling. The GM provides a
ground on the headlight washer relay control circuit providing pump operation. The head-
light washer pump is located on the side of the washer fluid reservoir.

Rear Window Wiper/Washer System (E39 Sport Wagon and E53): The system is
included in the scope of ZKE however is not controlled directly by the GM. The control elec-
tronics are integrated into the rear wiper motor assembly. The control electronics contains
two hall sensors, one for monitoring park position and other for the end stop, or to signal
reverse direction of the wiper motor. The control electronics are connected to the vehicle
electrical system via a single seven pin connector.
The rear wiper system is operator controlled
through the wiper stalk switch providing the fol-
lowing functions:
• Intermittent rear window wiping
• Programmed rear window wiping interval
• Operation of the rear window washer
Pressing the wiper stalk forward to the first detent activates the rear wiper in the intermit-
tent mode
. The timed interval is approximately 7-12 seconds. The full sweep and park posi-
tions are recognized by the two hall sensors on the motor gear assembly. If the wiper is
switched OFF, the wiper blade will return to the park position.
The programmed wiper interval procedure is as follows:
• Briefly switch the rear wiper ON/OFF
• Wait the desired interval time
• Switch the rear wiper ON again
• The OFF time will be the programmed interval - up to approx. 30 seconds
Rear window washing is activated by pressing the wiper stalk switch to the full forward
position.
The washer pump operates followed by two full wiping cycles. The wipers will then
switch to the intermittent wiping mode. Additionally, the system automatically controls the
following safety and convenience features:
• Wiper interrupt with the rear glass opened
• Wiping interrupt with a blocked wiper arm
• Continuous wiping when the vehicle is shifted into reverse
When the transmission is shifted into reverse, the wiper will switch to continuous operation
until the vehicle is shifted out of reverse. This signal (high) is provided by the LCM III when
it activates the back up lights.

Principle of Operation
The optical infra red portion of the sensor operates by the principle of refraction (bending
of a light ray). The rain sensor control module activates the emitter diode which sends a
beam of infra red light through the windshield on an angle. The set angle is important
because it provides the beam with a calculated reflective path back to the detector diode.
The beam is reflected back into the windshield due to the density difference of the glass
compared with the ambient air on the outside surface of the glass. When the windshield is
clean (no rain drops, moisture or dirt) the detector diode receives 100% of the infra red light
that the was sent by the emitter. With this condition, the rain sensor evaluation electronics
determines the windshield is free of rain drops.
The density of water is closer to that of glass than air. When rain starts to accumulate in
the sensor monitoring area, it causes part of the infra red beam to extend past the outside
surface of the glass and into the rain drop. When this occurs, the beam is refracted and
only part of the beam returns to the detector diode.
The rain sensor evaluation elec-
tronics determines the windshield
has a few rain drops (or dirt) on it.
The intensity of the returned infra red beam diminishes proportionally with an increase of
water droplets. The rain sensor control module generates a signal proportionate to the
amount of rain on the windshield and broadcasts it to the GM via the K bus.
The GM activates the intermittent wipe cycle if the windshield wiper stalk switch is in the
intermittent position. It also adjusts the frequency of wiping the windshield depending on
the four position thumb wheel.

• If the ignition switch is turned off with the wiper switch in the intermittent position, the rain
sensor will only become active after the ignition is switched back on and one of the fol-
lowing occurs:
- The stalk switch is moved from the intermittent position and then back.
- The knurled wheel setting is adjusted.
- or the wash function is activated.
The reasoning behind this switching strategy is to have the driver make a conscious deci-
sion to activate the system themselves.
Rain Sensor Control Module Adaptation
The rain sensor control module adapts to the optics system environment as follows:
Windshield Aging:As the vehicle ages the possibility of stone chipping in the rain sensors
monitoring area may occur which will cause a loss of light in the optics system.
The control module adapts for loss of light based on the intensity of the detected infra red
light with a cleared windshield (wiper motor park signal). Therefore, the rain sensors func-
tion is not adversely affected due to windshield aging.
Dirty Windows:The rain sensor adaptation reacts less sensitively to a dirty windshield
(dirt, road salt, wax residue) after a completed wipe cycle. A dirty windshield has a film on
it that diminishes the ability of the infra red to refract into present water droplets. This caus-
es a delay in the rain sensor detection capabilities which lengthens the time intervals on an
intermittent wipe.
Windshield Wiper System Failsafe Operation
The GM provides failsafe operation of the wiper system if faults are detected with any of the
following input signals:

• A remote luggage compartment button is installed in the left kick panel (center console
in the E53) to open the luggage compartment from inside the vehicle.
• The EWS is interfaced for double lock monitoring and unlock function. With the presence
of an accepted EWS key in the ignition, the vehicle will be unlocked and disarm DWA.
• The automatic locking feature (> 99 MY) activates the door locks when a road speed
signal of 5 MPH and engine RPM is detected via the K-Bus. The factory default setting
of this feature is off (can be encoded on for individual users with Key Memory function).
• In the event of an accident (ignition on), the GM will be signalled to unlock all doors.
Hardware Features:
• The external lock cylinders are located in the
driver’s door and luggage compartment lid
(E53/E39 Sport Wagon does not have a tail-
gate lock cylinder).
• The driver’s door and luggage compartment
incorporates an overrunning lock cylinder. The
lock cylinder will free wheel or spin If any key
other than the vehicle key or tool, such as a
screw driver, is inserted into the cylinder. The
lock cylinders can be manually locked/un-
locked by turning the key “past” lock/unlock.
• The door lock buttons are mechanically uncoupled from the
lock actuators when locked.
The door lock buttons “mechanically” lock the individual
doors. This provides manual locking in the event of a central
locking malfunction.
• Child safety locks (located in
the rear doors) are actuated
by inserting a key in the slot on
the door latch or by sliding a
lever (dependent on model).
The door can now only be
opened from outside.

Door Lock Actuators: A door lock actuator contains an electric motor and an integrated
microswitch (position switch). The rotary motor movement through the gear drive mechan-
ically moves the locking latch.
When the lock actuator is operating, the motor is powered until the position switch signals
the “locked” position. If the vehicle is locked from the exterior, the motor is powered further
and the the gear mechanism is moved beyond the locked position into the “double lock”
position. The motors must be powered (in reverse) to release the double lock. The inside
door handles will not unlock a “double locked” vehicle.
E53 Door Lock Mechanism: The E53 utilizes a door latch combined with dual actuator
motors. This type of actuator is sealed, self contained units with no replaceable parts. The
door lock actuators use hall effect sensors in place of pin contacts/microswitches to pro-
vide:
• Door lock key position (driver’s door only)
• Door open/closed status (replaces door jamb
switch).
The GM monitors the lock cylinder positions over two
wires. The signals are generated by two hall effect
sensors (Hall Sensor 1 & 2) located in the actuator.
When the key is turned, a plastic cylinder in the lock
actuator is simultaneously rotated by the lock tumbler
extension rod.
An asymmetrical shaped magnet is incorporated in the plastic cylinder, which when rotat-
ed changes the magnetic influence on the hall sensors. The presence of a magnet in close
proximity to the sensing surface of either hall sensor creates a coded input over the two
wires that the GM uses to determine the key position.
• Magnet in front of sensor, current flow through the sensor is <5 mA (0).
• Magnet rotated away from sensor, current flow through the sensor is >12 mA (1).
Hall effect sensors improve the actuators reliability since they are impervious to moisture
and there are no wear contacts.

Workshop Hints
Remote Key Initialization: The initialization of the FZV keys is required to establish the
Lock/Unlock signal synchronization with the GM. The initialization procedure provides the
GM with a key identification number and a “rolling code” for each key. If the initialization is
not performed, the GM will not respond to the key signals.
Up to 4 remote keys can be initialized. They must be initialized at the same time. Key ini-
tialization is only possible with the vehicle unlocked.
Procedure:
1. Close all doors and have all keys available.
2. Using key number 1, turn the ignition switch to KL
R, then switch off within 5 seconds and remove the
first key.
3. Within 30 seconds of turning the ignition switch to
“off” Press and holdbutton #2.
4. While holding button #2, press and release(“tap”)
button #1 three timeswithin 10 seconds.
5. Release both buttons. The LED in the key will flash
momentarily (except 2000 MY). The GM will imme-
diately lock and unlock the doors signaling a suc-
cessful initialization.
6. If additional keys need to be initialized repeat steps
3 - 5 within 30 seconds.
7. Switching the ignition to KL R completes the initiali-
zation.
NOTE: The key memory function of the GM responds
to the key identification number of each key. If the keys
are not initialized in the same order prior to initialization,
the key memory functions activated by the keys will not
be assigned correctly. Always initialize the keys in
the same order.

Principle of Operation
DWA Arming/Disarming
• The DWA is armed every time the vehicle is locked from the outside with the door lock
cylinder or FZV key.
• The DWA LED flashes as an acknowledgment along with the exterior lights and a
momentary chirp from the siren.
• The GM monitors all required input signals for closed status (door closed, luggage com-
partment closed, etc.) The inputs must be in a closed status for a minimum of 3 sec-
onds for the GM to include them as an activation component. If after 3 seconds any
input signal not in the closed status is excluded (this is acknowledged by the DWA LED)
preventing false alarm activations. The hood switch can be “lifted” to the service posi-
tion to test the alarm with the hood open.
• If the DWA is armed a second time within 10 seconds, the tilt sensor and interior pro-
tection sensor are excluded as alarm activation components. This function is useful if
the vehicle is transported on a train or flat bed truck to prevent false alarm activations.
• While armed, the trunk can be opened with out the alarm being triggered as follows:
- If opened with the trunk remote button via the FZV, the GM prevents the alarm from
activating. (This feature is customizable under the Car Memory function).
- If opened with the key at the trunk lock cylinder the trunk key position switch sig-
nals the GM and in the same manner prevents the alarm from activating.
In either case, when the trunk is returned to the closed position, it is no longer con-
sidered as an activation signal.
Panic Mode Operation: When the trunk button is pressed and held, the GM is signaled
to activate the siren for the Panic Mode. The panic mode is function with either an armed
or disarmed DWA system.
Emergency Disarming: Emergency disarming occurs automatically if a key is used to turn
the ignition switch on and the EWS accepts it. The EWS signals the GM to unlock the doors
and deactivate the DWA.

SHD Self Diagnosis
The SHD monitors operation and stores fault codes if a defect is determined. The SHD
monitors the following conditions:
• SHD motor relays:The relays are checked for sticking contacts (plausibility) and non
functional contacts.
• Hall effect position sensors:The SHD must detect a pulse frequency from the hall
effect sensor(s) during operation.
• Sunroof Switch: The SHD monitors the signal plausibility of the coded signaling from
the sunroof switch.
Sunroof Fault Response Characteristics
If a fault occurs with any of these functions, the SHD responds as follows:
• Overrides the end run detection.
• Switches the motor off if the relay contacts stick for more than 500 ms.
• Switches the motor off if pulses are not received.
Emergency Operation of the Sunroof
If the sunroof motor does not respond to the switch signals, the hex key in the trunk lid tool
kit is used to manually turn the motor shaft drive.

System Components
Door Contacts: As mentioned in the Central Locking Section, the existing door contacts
opened/closed are also an input for the interior lighting function. The E53 uses the Hall
effect sensors for the purpose of monitoring door open/closed status (located directly
behind the rotary latch plate encased in the actuator). The sensor is activated by the rotary
latch plate's position.
• Door closed, the rotary latch plate is in the latched position. Current flow through the
hall sensor is < 5 mA.
• Door open, the rotary latch plate is in the open position. Current flow through the hall
sensor is > 12 mA.
A change in current flow informs the General module when a door is opened or closed.
Front Seat Interior/Map Light Unit:The overhead front seat interior light unit contains a
single main interior light. The light is controlled by the GM automatically or by momentarily
pressing interior light switch located on the light assembly.
The switch provides a momentary ground signal that the GM recognizes as a request to
either turn the light on (if off) or turn the light off (if on).
If the switch is held for more than 3 seconds, the
GM interprets the continuous ground signal as a
request to turn the interior light circuit off for the
Workshop Mode
.
The workshop mode is stored in memory and
will not come back on even if the GM is removed
from it's power supply and reconnected. The
switch must be pressed to turn the lights back
on.
There are two reading/map lights also located in the assembly. Each map light is mechan-
ically controlled by depressing the corresponding on/off switch. The power supply for the
map lights is supplied by the GM through the Consumer Cut Off circuit.
