PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The adaptive front lighting module receives information over the communication network for things such as vehicle speed, steering wheel angle and headlamps on status. Based on the information received, the adaptive front lighting module determines if the headlamps need to be angled left or right as well as the degree of angle.

When the ignition is placed to the RUN/START position, the adaptive front lighting module runs an initialization check to determine the straight ahead position of the headlamps. If the adaptive front lighting module does not receive the required information over the communication network or determines that there is a fault with the circuitry to the sensors or control motors, it defaults the headlamps to the straight ahead position.
