BMW 61356961140 Light And Check-Control Module

Light control module is installed in the right front foot well which can be accessed only by removing the right front sill cover and kick panel and lifting the carpet behind the right kick panel. This module controls exterior lighting and processes driver information display data and functions as a bus system to the rest of the modules. CC1 functions include measurement of Check Control inputs and output, operation and control of vehicle external lights, dimming signals of instruments panels and indicators for high beam, turn and fog indicators. The module houses transistor power output stages for operating exterior lights so that there are no necessary lighting fuses or relays. It gets input requests of low intensity lighting from switches and other input data from other control modules to switch power output stages ON to turn on the lamps. Other modules that interact with it are the instrument cluster for the illumination of indicators, the multiple restraint system module for the alarm on a crash situation, and adaptive transmission control for the backup lamp. The LCM also supervises exterior bulbs where it will send signals that a bulb is off if the value it detects is above or below the set level. For safety it has emergency functions and various lights is operable even if LCM fails, these includes side marker lights, tail lamps, low beam head lamps, stop lamps and turn signal lamps. When replacing the module, it is necessary to code the new unit with the help of the BMW service tool.
