REVERSING LIGHTS - DESCRIPTION

Right hand drive

DESCRIPTION

The vehicle is equipped with a white reversing light located in the left rear light cluster on the moving part of the boot lid.

It is activated each time reverse gear is engaged: this information arrives via the special switch located on the outside of the gearbox casing. The reversing lights circuit is supplied with the TEG inserted (INT) and protected by a special fuse in the junction unit under the dashboard.

The signal that reverse gear has been engaged is managed by the Body Computer which forwards this information to the steering column switch unit for the automatic operation of the rearscreen wiper and, via the CAN, to the other nodes, for example to the parking sensors control unit.
