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).
Convenience electrics
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.

Diagnosis
Basic settings
After the control unit for on-board power
supply J519 or the steering column or the switch for
steering column adjustment E167 is replaced, a
basic setting in axial and vertical position must be
implemented for the steering column.
Actuator test
An actuator test can be used to carry out the
following checks:
– Indicator light for hazard warning lights K6
– Lamp for parking light, left M1
– Lamp for parking light, right M3
– Lamp for dipped beam headlight, left M29
– Lamp for dipped beam headlight, right M31
– Lamp for high beam headlight, left M30
– Lamp for high beam headlight, right M32

The central control unit for convenience
system, J393, has the usual diagnostic functions,
such as read fault memory, read measured value
blocks, adaptation, coding, as well as selective and
sequential actuator test at its disposal.
Actuator test
The selective actuator test initiated by the diagnosis
tester can be used to check the following actuators:
– Indicator light for safe central locking K133
(in door rim)

– Central locking (normal/selective)
–Tilt sensor
– Passenger compartment sensor
– Convenience function via radio
–Right-hand traffic
–Avant detection
–Rear sun blind
