GF32.50-P-4501R ABC Control Unit, Component Description
GF32.50-P-4501R ABC control unit, component description
- with CODE (487) Active body control (ABC)
- as of 1.3.06 up to model year 08
Component Identification:
Location
The ABC control unit is installed on the left behind the cockpit crossmember.
Task
The ABC control unit is used in the partially active suspension system, Active Body Control (ABC).
The system uses four hydraulic plungers to apply active force to each wheel.
The control intervention functions are effective up to a frequency range of approx. 5 Hz.
For this purpose, the system requires an extensive sensor and actuator system which is evaluated, monitored and actuated by the control unit.
Functions
The system performs the following functions:
^ Speed-dependent, adjustable level control
^ Body damping
^ Body leveling when cornering and when braking/accelerating
This improves vehicle dynamics and ride comfort.
Signal inputs and outputs
Direct inputs:
^ ABC pressure sensor (B4/5), integrated in ABC front axle valve unit (Y36/1)
^ Left front ABC pressure sensor (B4/8), integrated in ABC front axle valve unit
^ Right front ABC pressure sensor (B4/9), integrated in ABC front axle valve unit
^ Left rear ABC pressure sensor (B4/10), integrated in ABC rear axle valve unit (Y36/2)
^ Right rear ABC pressure sensor (B4/11), integrated in ABC rear axle valve unit
^ Left rear level sensor (B22/7)
^ Left front level sensor (B22/8)
^ Right front level sensor (B22/9)
^ Right rear level sensor (B22/10)
^ Left front body lateral acceleration sensor (B24/3)
^ ABC right front body lateral acceleration sensor (B24/4)
^ Left rear body lateral acceleration sensor (B24/5)
^ ABC lateral acceleration sensor (B24/12)
^ Wake-up line, coming from driver-side SAM control unit (N10/10)
^ Terminal 31
^ Terminal 87
