Display
Function
Turn signal indicator
ticking
Switching on the turn signal indicator is
indicated acoustically by the turn signal
indicator ticking. The driver's attention is
brought to a defect in the turn signal system
by the turn signal indicator ticking at a higher
frequency.
Turn signal indicator ticking is generated
electromagnetically. The frequency
corresponds to that of the turn signal indicator
lamp.
The signal comes from the combination relay
(turn signal indicator with trailer coupling, rear
window defroster), wiper motor, ATA (N10/2),
on model 210 from the multi-function control
module (N10-1) or from the driver-side signal-
acquisition and actuation module (SAM)
(N10/1), on model 163 from the All-Activity
Module (AAM, N10), on model 168 it is
generated by the integrated turn signal
indicator control in the instrument cluster (A1).

1998-2005 ENGINE
Air Intake, Turbo Charging - 163 Chassis
BASIC KNOWLEDGE
AIR INTAKE, FUNCTION - GF09.00-P-3000A
ENGINE 112 (except 112.960 /961) without supercharger
Fig. 1: Identifying Air Intake Components
- Without Supercharger
INTAKE MANIFOLD, LOCATION - GF09.20-P-3102-01A
Shown on ENGINE 113
PurposeReducing intake noises
Design/function
A Helmholtz resonator (branching filter) with a volume of about 0.6 liters, is installed
to reduce the intake noises. This is active in the engine speed range from approx. 3500
- 4500 rpm. As a side effect the air flow in this engine speed range is improved at the
hot film mass air flow sensor and the measurement of the air mass is thus more
accurate.
