Module, Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFLS): Description
This vehicle can be equipped with the optional Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFLS) and an AFLS module (1). The AFLS module is located on a bracket behind the passenger side knee air bag, to the right of the Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) unit.
The AFLS module works in conjunction with the front and rear axle leveling sensors, the headlamp swiveling motors and electronic message inputs received over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from other Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in the vehicle. The AFLS module provides automatic headlamp beam aim adjustment to compensate for changes in vehicle direction caused by changes in vehicle loading, acceleration, deceleration, steering wheel angle and YAW rate.
The AFLS module cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, it must be replaced. The AFLS module is flash programmable.
