Terminal 61 is used for the generator

indicator lamp. When the ignition is

On
the excitation voltage is applied to it and

the generator voltage when the engine is

running.

However, a terminal is required for some

systems (e.g. exterior lamp indicator) which

D
is exactly at ground potential (low level),

when the engine is not running with the

ignition
On

D
is exactly at least 10.5 V (high level),

when the voltage at terminal 61

exceeds a particular voltage or the

engine speed exceeds a particular

threshold (480 rpm).

Terminal 61e is used for this (engine running

recognition/speed threshold value).

Terminal 61e is produced in instrument

cluster (A1) in accordance with the sketched

circuit diagram:
An electronic system is ...via terminal 15

Terminal 61 and the speed signal are used as input signals which

reach the instrument cluster via the CAN data bus.

If a particular speed or a particular voltage threshold at terminal 61 is

exceeded, the transistor switches off and terminal 61e goes to high

level (terminal 61 and the speed signal are interlinked to terminal 61e

via an OR function. Also refer to table.)

The maximum current at terminal 61e is approx. 2 mA at high level

and approx. 350 mA at low level. The switching delay is

0.5 seconds in each case.

Exterior lamp indicator lamp and charge indicator lamp

The input signal of terminal 61 and the speed signal are used for

engine running recognition. Depending on these input signals the

exterior lamp failure indicator lamp (A1e14) or the generator charge

indicator lamp (A1e5) is actuated (refer to table).

The instrument cluster also passes on the status of terminal 61e as a

CAN message. The information is consequently available to all bus

participants.

On models 163 and 168 terminal 61e is only made available as a

CAN message. There is no discrete terminal 61e line.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
Verify customer complaint by operating system. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical
damage. Check generator belt tension and condition. Ensure that battery voltage is within specifications. Inspect
for blown fuses and damaged relays.
Verify ground connection integrity between engine, body, battery and generator. Check for damaged wiring
harnesses and/or switches. Check for a broken or partially broken wire inside insulation, which could cause
system malfunction but prove good in a continuity/voltage check with system disconnected. Ensure any
aftermarket electronic equipment is properly installed. If fault is found, repair as necessary. If no fault is found,
check for conditions that might cause an intermittent situation.
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
BATTERY DISCONNECT/CONNECT
Disconnect Procedures
1. On vehicles not equipped with TELE AID, go to step 5 . Vehicles equipped with TELE AID, switch
TELE AID into service mode by turning ignition ON.
2. Turn ON telephone and enter code "*#4610#" on handset.
3. Confirm that "No Telematics Service" appears on handset with okay.
4. Turn OFF handset.
5. Turn OFF ignition.
6. Open hood and open snap fasteners (1) on dust filter housing. See Fig. 2
.
7. Remove dust filter housing (2) exposing battery.
8. If not using quiescent current retention unit, go to step 14 . If using quiescent current retention unit, go to
next step.
9. Connect quiescent current retention unit by switching on quiescent current retention unit (7) and then first
connecting positive terminal (8) and negative terminal (9) of retention unit to positive cable and battery
ground (W10). See Fig. 3
.
10. On vehicles equipped with TELE AID, remove luggage compartment cargo anchoring lugs and remove
floor paneling.
11. Remove screws (1). See Fig. 4
.
12. Dismantle cover from TELE AID control module (A35/8).
13. Disconnect connection coupling for back up battery and remove back up battery.
14. Disconnect ne
gative battery cable (1) and insulate terminal. See Fig. 5. NOTE: Numbers and letters in text refer to numbers and letters in figures.
