Operating windows




Operating the window from the driver's seat
The window operation is initiated via the switch on the control panel (3/176).
The power window motor on the driver's side is regulated directly by the driver door module (DDM) (3/126). The power window motor on the passenger side is regulated via CAN communication from the driver door module (DDM) to the passenger door module (PDM) (3/127). Signals for operation of the rear driver's side window is sent from the driver door module (DDM) to the rear window via LIN communication. Signals for operation of the rear passenger side window is sent from the driver door module (DDM) to the passenger door module (PDM) via the CAN network and then on to the rear window via LIN communication.
Operating the front window on the passenger side
The passenger door module (PDM) (3/127) only operates the front passenger side window. The window is operated by the switch in the control panel (3/83). The signal is sent to the power window motor on the passenger side via the passenger door module (PDM).
Operating the window in the left rear door
The left rear door module (LDM) (3/128) can only operate the left rear door window. The window is operated by the switch in the control panel (3/19). The signal is sent to the power window motor in the left rear door via the left rear door module (LDM).
Operating the window in the right rear door
The right rear door module (RDM) (3/129) can only operate the right rear door window. The window is operated by the switch in the control panel (3/21). The signal is sent to the power window motor in the right rear door via the right rear door module (RDM).
Activating the child lock
If the child lock is activated via the driver door module (DDM), the rear windows cannot be operated from the rear doors. The child lock is operated via the switch in the control panel on the driver's side. A signal is transmitted to the driver door module (DDM) and on via LIN communication to the left rear door module (LDM) and right rear door module (RDM), which block window operation in the respective door.

Functions in the door mirrors
The functions in the door mirrors (6/62 left) (6/63 right) that are controlled from the control panel of the driver door module (DDM) (3/126) are:
- setting the mirror position
- folding in the door mirrors
- heating the mirrors
- approach lighting/guide lighting
- turn signals.
The left door mirror has a temperature sensor for the outside temperature. The signal from the temperature sensor is directly connected to the Engine control module (ECM). The signal is not controlled by the driver door module (DDM) or the passenger door module (PDM).

Adjusting the mirror position




Setting of mirror position is controlled using buttons on the control panel on the driver's side (3/176). The driver door module (DDM) (3/126) transmits a signal directly to the mirror on the driver's side (6/62). When adjusting the mirror on the passenger side (6/63), a signal is sent via the driver door module (DDM) to the passenger door module (PDM) (3/127) on the CAN network. The passenger door module (PDM) transmits the signal to the door mirror.
On vehicles equipped with power seat with memory function for external mirrors, it is possible to interconnect mirror position with seat position. Signal about mirror position in X-axis and Y-axis is registered using two potentiometers by Driver door module (DDM) and Passenger door module (PDM), respectively. When one of the buttons on the control panel for power seat is activated, a signal is sent from Power seat module (PSM)(3/26) to Driver door module (DDM) and Passenger door module (PDM), respectively. These set the external mirrors in the position that is connected to the seat position. The mirror position can also be connected to which remote key unlocks the vehicle.
See more on this function in Design and Function, Power seat module.

Folding in the door mirrors




The mirror is retracted by holding both the L and R buttons on the control panel (3/176) on the driver's side. A signal is transmitted via the driver door module (DDM) (3/126) to the passenger door module (PDM) (3/127) via the CAN network. The control modules send the signal on to each door mirror (6/62 and 6/63), which retract or extend the respective mirror. The mirrors are also retracted/extended automatically during certain conditions when vehicles are locked/unlocked.

Heating the mirrors




Heating of mirrors is activated at the same time as heating of rear window.
When switch electrically heated rear window/rearview mirrors is pressed in the climate control module (CCM) (4/6) activates heating of the rear window. At the same time, the signal is sent on via the CAN-net to driver door module (DDM) (3/126) and passenger door module (PDM) (3/127), for activation of rearview mirror heating.
When driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) receive the signal, the outputs for heating of each rearview mirror (6/62 and 6/63) are supplied with voltage.
Heating then pulses with 4 minutes activated and 2 minutes deactivated until the function is turned off.
The function is turned off at the same time as heating of the rear window is turned off, which can be done in three ways:
- If the switch for heated rear window/door mirrors is pressed again after activation, the function is switched off, using a signal from the climate control module (CCM)
- Heating is also turned off automatically approx. 12 minutes after activation if the outdoor temperature is above or equal to +7 °C. Driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) then receive a signal from climate control module (CCM) requesting deactivation of the function.
- The heating is also switched off if the ignition is switched off.

Approach lighting/Guide lighting




Approach lighting is activated using the remote key for the vehicle. The function can only be activated when the ignition is off. When the yellow button on the remote key is pressed, the central electronic module (CEM) (4/56) receives an activation signal that is sent onward on the CAN network. The driver door module (DDM) (3/126) and passenger door module (PDM) (3/127) receive the signal and switch on the lighting for the left door mirror (6/62) and the lighting for the right door mirror (6/63). The function is deactivated by pressing the button on the remote key again. A signal is then sent from the central electronic module (CEM) to the driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) requesting that the function is switched off. The function is also switched off when the ignition is switched on.
The guide lighting is activated using the left control stalk (the remote key must be removed from the start unit). The steering wheel module (SWM) (3/130) transmits a signal to the central electronic module (CEM) via LIN communication. When the car is then locked, the central electronic module (CEM) sends a signal onward via the CAN network to the driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM), which turn on the lights in the door mirrors. The lights are part of the guide lighting function and remain on for a set time (30, 60 or 90 seconds).

Measuring the outside temperature




The left door mirror has a temperature sensor for the outside temperature. The signal from the temperature sensor is directly connected to the central electronic module (CEM) (4/46). The signal is not controlled by the driver door module (DDM) (3/126) or the passenger door module (PDM) (3/127).
