Brake light switch

Brief description of components

Brake light switch

The brakelight switch is an electronic switch. The brake light switch is supplied with power by the light module as of terminal R ON.

For safety reasons, the brakelight switch contains 2 switch outputs:

• One output is connected with the light module.
  
• A second output is connected to the CAS (Car Access System) control module. The CAS evaluates the brake signal and passes the brake signal on to the K-CAN SYSTEM.
  

The signal ”brakelight switch operated” is thus received by two independent control modules and passed on. If one of the two signal paths fails, the other still functions.
