The control unit in dash panel insert J285 is
available in two variants.
The High-Line variant with colour display only
comes in vehicles with adaptive cruise control.
As in the A8 '03, the anti-drive-off feature and
gateway are no longer integrated into the dash
panel insert.
The handy position of the rotary light switch has
meant that the indicator lights for dipped beam
headlight, fog light and rear fog light could also be
fitted directly in the rotary light switch.
Likewise, the buttons for instrument lighting, the
auto-check system and the daily mileage counter
are now positioned to the right, next to the dash
panel insert, in the button module (operating
buttons for dash panel insert E493).

Lamp failure
If an exterior lighting lamp fails, a symbol appears
in the central display indicating which lamp has
failed. If you now press the Check button, the failed
lamp is also described by a text message in the
central display.
Outside temperature indicator
The instrument cluster evaluates both the
temperature sensor for outside temperature G17
and the outside temperature signal from the
Climatronic control unit J255. The lower of the two
values is displayed.

Functions
The main function of the control unit for on-board
power supply is to read in switch information and
activate power outputs.
It is familiar from the Audi A8 ‘03 and has been
adapted to new functionalities in the Audi A6 ´05.
Master functions
The following master functions are implemented in
the control unit for on-board power supply.
– External lighting control
– LIN master for the control unit for
wiper motor J400
– LIN master for the sensor for rain and
light detection G397 (for details of function,
see Sensor for rain and light detection)
Stand-by master function
If the central control unit for the convenience
system J393 fails, the control unit for on-board
power supply J519 takes over the stand-by master
function. It sends the information for direction
indicators to the CAN bus.

Emergency function
The software for the control unit for on-board power
supply can be used to implement emergency
functions. If a fault is detected in the rotary light
switch or if there is an open circuit in the line to the
rotary light switch, the control unit for on-board
power supply switches the driving light on.
Other functionalities
In addition to the master functions, the following
functions are also available in the control unit for
on-board power supply.
– Steering column adjustment
– Footwell lighting
– Selector gate lighting
– Direction indicator control, front and side
– Signal horn activation
– Windscreen washer pump activation
– Steering column memory
Versi on s
There are three functional versions of the control
unit for on-board power supply:
– Low-Line version (with no electric steering
column adjustment, no xenon, no daytime
driving lights)
– Mid-Line version (with no electric steering
column adjustment, with xenon and daytime
driving lights)
– High-Line version (with electric steering column
adjustment, xenon and daytime driving lights)
Installation position
The control unit for on-board power supply is
installed on the left behind the dash panel. It can be
accessed by removing the footwell cover.

A combined sensor for rain and light detection is
used for the first time in the Audi A6 ’05.
The sensor includes a light-control assistant
function, which relieves the driver of the job of
having to switch the driving light on manually, as
well as a wiper control function, which depends on
the amount of moisture on the front windscreen.
The development goal here was to integrate these
functions in a compact housing.
The sensor is connected as a LIN slave to the control
unit for on-board power supply J519.
Installation position
The sensor for rain and light detection is located on
the windscreen in the attachment base of the
interior mirror.
Tasks of the light sensor
– Switch the driving light on and off automatically
– Activate the Coming Home/Leaving Home
function
– Day/night detection for rain sensor
Switch-on conditions
The light sensor supplies the control unit for
on-board power supply with information for
switching on the driving light in the following
situations:
–Dawn/dusk
–Darkness
– Entering/travelling through tunnels
– Travelling through forests
