SAFARI STORME MY14
ELECTRICAL 144 There are two positions for the indicator stalk for both directions; Latched The indicator stalk is moved fully in either direction until the stalk is held in position. When the indicator stalk is in the latched position, the directional indicators will continue to flash until they are cancelled by the user, or self cancelled by the steering wheel movement. Not Latched – 3 Flash Mode If the indicator stalk is held in the Not Latched position, the indicators will continue to flash until the stalk is released. When the indicator stalk moves to the Not Latched position for a time period between 100ms and 700ms the indicators will enter 3 Flash Mode. If the indicator stalk is held in the Not Latched position for a time period greater that 700ms then the direction Indicators on that side should flash until the stalk is moved to the latched position or returned to the Neutral position. When 3 Flash Mode is entered, the indicators will flash 3 times on the side selected, starting with an illuminated phase. At the end of the 3 flashes, 3 Flash Mode is exited. If during 3 Flash Mode the user moves the indicator stalk to the same side for between 100ms and 700ms, the current 3 Flash Mode is to complete and the switch movement is to be ignored. If during 3 Flash Mode the user moves the indicator stalk to the opposite side the current 3 Flash Mode is to exit and stop flashing immediately. If indicator stalk is hold at opposite side for between 100ms and 700ms, 3 flash mode start for this side. The flash rate of the indicators should remain constant. Activation of the hazard function will cancel the current 3 flash mode immediately. If a bulb failure is detected, 3 flash mode will give 6 flashes at the low current double flash rate on the affected side until the bulb failure is no longer detected. Tow ball electric ( If equipped ): In this configuration, an external tow ball electronic controller will be fitted at the rear of the vehicle when the tow ball electrical harness is fitted. To comply with road lighting regulations, direction indicator bulb failure warning will be extended to the trailer. Trailer bulb failure will be detected by the tow ball controller. Communication between the tow ball controller and the BCM will be via a single input on the BCM to indicate trailer bulb failure. When the driver selects left or right direction indicators, the BCM will monitor the Tow ball Bulb Failure input. If this input is driven low by the tow ball controller, the BCM will double the flash rate on the appropriate indicators to indicate bulb failure. As the trailer socket does not allow the detection of a trailer, the tow ball input must be monitored each time the direction indicators are selected. This includes three flash modes. A fault on the tow ball bulb failure input cannot be detected. The tow ball kit will be fitted at the dealers end, but the vehicle harness will contain connectors to allow easy fitment. The tow ball will support the use of a trailer, caravan or bike rack with rear light board. The tow ball functionality is the same for any rear attachment.
