The control panels in the passenger door are directly connected to the passenger door module (PDM).

Passenger door module (PDM) receives the input signals from the control panels. The control module then carries out the function or transmits the signal on using CAN communication to the control module which is carrying out the function.

The following functions can be controlled via the control panels:

• power window mechanism in the passenger door
• central locking.
