Combined rain sensor/light sensor
CAUTIONS:
On vehicles with autolamps, retrofitting
with daytime running lamps is not
permissible, as otherwise, the engine
cannot be stopped when the lighting is
switched on.
On vehicles with autolamps, the daytime
running lamp fuse must not be fitted, as
otherwise, the engine cannot be stopped
when the lighting is switched on.
The combined rain sensor/light sensor is located
behind the interior rear view mirror.
autolamps The low beams, side lamps, license plate lamps
as well as the instrument cluster and instrument
panel illumination are switched on automatically if
all the following conditions are met:
• Ignition ON
• Light switch in the "AUTO" position
•
Detected ambient light conditions below a stored
threshold value
These are switched on and off by the GEM (generic
electronic module) in accordance with the input
signals from the combined rain/light sensor.
Headlamp switch-off delay
In vehicles with mid to high-end equipment, the
headlamp switch-off delay uses the dipped beam
headlamps and the door entry illumination (if
equipped) to illuminate the vehicle surroundings.
This function is activated by operating the main
beam headlamp lever with the ignition switched
off. After the last door has been closed, the function
remains active for a further 30 seconds and then
switches off automatically.
When a door or the tailgate is open, the switch-off
time is extended to 180 seconds. After the last door
has been closed, the switch-off time is reset to 30
seconds.
The headlamp switch-off delay can be deactivated
prematurely by operating the high beam lever again
or by switching on the ignition.
The switch-off time is adjusted to fixed values at
the factory and can
notbe re-programmed using
WDS.
Turn signals The turn signals and the warning lamp flash at a
specified frequency and, in the case of failure of a
turn signal, the frequency is doubled.
The turn signal lamps also have a one-touch lane
change function. If the multifunction lever is
pressed just slightly then the relevant turn signal
lamp is actuated 3 times.

On some models, the door entry lamps are installed
in the external mirrors.
The door entry lamps should illuminate the ground
in the immediate vicinity of the front doors; they
are equipped with white bulbs, which are installed
in the underside of the mirror.
The door entry illumination is switched on when
one of the doors or the tailgate are opened, or if
an unlocking command is detected and the
following conditions are satisfied:
• Vehicle Ignition is off.
• Reverse gear is not engaged.
• The vehicle speed is below 7 km/h.
The door entry illumination is switched off if one of
the following conditions is satisfied:
• The ignition is selected on.
• Reverse gear is engaged.
• The vehicle speed exceeds 7 km/h.
• More than 25 seconds have elapsed since the
tailgate was closed or a central locking
command was determined.
• The time set for the battery protection function for the interior lighting has elapsed.
• More than 5 seconds have elapsed since the doors and the tailgate were closed.
• More than 5 seconds have elapsed since a central locking command was received and the
all doors and the tailgate were closed. Rear Lighting The rear lamps are each divided into three units.
The reversing lamps are located in the units in the
liftgate.
The outer units in the D-pillars contain the side
lamp as well as the turn signal and stoplamp.
The rear fog lamp is integrated in the lower area
of the bumper.
The high-mounted additional stop lamp is installed
in the middle of the roof spoiler.

The following components are part of the automatic
headlamp leveling system:
• Vehicle level sensors on the front and rear axles
• Control module
• Actuator motors for headlamp leveling Accordingly, the system needs to be set up with
the aid of WDS after any components are replaced
or any other repairs are carried out.
The front and rear sensors are Hall sensors which
send a digital signal to the control unit.

A diagnosis of the generic electronic module (GEM)
can be performed with the Ford approved
diagnostic tool. Furthermore, an integrated service
mode enables testing of the input and output
signals without the need for further tools. To enable
activation of service mode:
• switch off the ignition,
• switch off all other electrical consumers,
• apply the handbrake,
• shift to neutral
• and close the doors.
Activating the service mode
Proceed as follows to activate the service mode:
•
OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
• Turn on the ignition.
• RELEASE the switch of the heated rear window
A signal sounds and the turn signal lamps come
on to indicate that service mode has been
successfully activated.
NOTE: If the alarm is activated (in vehicles fitted
with an anti-theft alarm system), service mode
cannot be activated.
Inputs
SWITCH the windshield wiper switch to the "Off"
position to test the input signals. The following is
a list of the switch signals to be tested, in no
particular order:
• Turn signals (right, left, hazard warning lights)
• Windshield wiper stage I
• Windshield wiper stage II
• Windshield washer system • Rear window wiper
• Rear window washer system
• Doors open/closed
• Remote control for central locking with double
locking
• Hood open/closed (in vehicles equipped with an anti-theft alarm system)
• Tailgate open/closed
• A/C request signal
• Heated windscreen (if fitted)
• Parking Brake
• Brake reservoir fluid level
• Speed control system
• Autolamps
• dipped beam
• main beam
• headlamp flasher
• Marker Lamps
• Reversing lamp
• Liftgate release
• Ignition switch, terminal 15 (turn key to 0 position, then turn key to II position.)
An acoustic signal sounds and the turn signal
lamps flash to indicate receipt of each input signal
by the generic electronic module.
Test the windshield wiper "intermittent mode" stage
input signal (only vehicles with adjustable
intermittent mode)
The windshield wiper switch must be switched to
"intermittent mode" in order to test the input signal.
The delay times of the input signals can then be
tested by operating the rotary switch. Each change
of the rotary switch position is indicated by an
acoustic signal and illumination of the turn signals.
Output signals
SWITCH the wiper switch to the "intermittent""
position to test the output signals. PRESSING the
heated rear window switch activates the output
signals in the following order:
a. Turn Indicator Left Hand
b. Turn Indicator Right Hand
c. main beam
