Rear Electrical Center (REC) (701)

Rear Electrical Center 701 (REC)

Location
The electrical center is located in the luggage compartment on the left-hand wheel housing.

Main task
Act as the electrical center for the rear of the car and the roof, and perform certain logic functions such as for the rear lighting.

Type
Electrical center with relays, Maxi and micro fuses and an integrated control module for logic functions. Wiring for a trailer connector is connected to the electrical center.





Connect
The electrical center is fed with a +30 supply from the engine bay electrical center (342) and grounded to grounding points G3 and G29. The electrical center is connected to the wiring harness via 7 connectors:
1. Body 1 (in diagram = B1) to main wiring harness





2. Body 2 (in diagram = B2) to main wiring harness





3. Body 3 (in diagram = B3) to main wiring harness





4. Head 1 (in diagram = H1)
4D to roof harness





5D to roof harness





5. Head 2 (in diagram = H2)
4D to roof harness





5D to roof harness





CV to main harness





6. Rear (in diagram = R) to rear wiring harness





7. Tail (in diagram - T) to:
4D: parcel shelf harness





5D: rear harness





CV: rear harness





The connectors for the main, parcel shelf and rear wiring harnesses each comprise four connectors, which are named A, B, C and D in the wiring diagrams, for example B1-B.

The TR-WH connector is used for a trailer connector. In some cases a special module, TR-MOD, is required.

The electrical center contains the following power circuits:
+30 power supply, rear electrical center
+15 power supply, rear electrical center
