Ignition lock registration
The signals from the terminals:
– P parking light
– 86s ignition key contact
– 75 Load-reduction relay
– 15 ignition ON
– 50 starter
are transmitted to the steering column elec-
tronics J527 via conventional wiring. The
switch positions of the ignition lock are pre-
pared by the electronics, supplied to the con-
venience CAN bus and then transmitted via
the gateway to the drive and infotainment
CAN bus systems.
Steering angle sender G85
The determination of steering angle is per-
formed via optical elements in the steering
column electronics J527 and is supplied to
the drive CAN BUS.
The current steering angle position is thus
made available to the ESP control unit.
For further information on the optical
steering angle sensor, please refer to
SSP 204.
Self-diagnosis
Communication between the diagnostic
tester and the steering column electronics
J527 is effected by means of the convenience
data bus via the central convenience electron-
ics J393, as no separate K wire is connected
to the steering column electronics.. (see
graphic 254 018 on Page 57)
The steering column electronics module with
operating unit for "tiptronic", multi-functions,
horn etc., is incorporated in the self-diagnosis.
Address word 16
After the addressing, the tester answers with
the text "steering column electronics".
