2005 AUDI A6 light

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The new Audi A6 – the most progressive vehicle
takes the lead.
The new Audi A6 consistently adopts the highly
networked electronic architecture, which is already
used in the Audi A8. Overall, new technologies allow
the A6 to match up with its "model" vehicle, the Audi
A8. Features, which were previously reserved for
luxury vehicles, are now also available in the top-
class segment.
In combination with these diverse capabilities,
the underlying technology has, of course,
been enhanced considerably.
The use of the most modern network technologies,
such as CAN, LIN, MOST and Bluetooth, and the
related distributed vehicle functions signals the
arrival of a new generation of vehicle electrics in
this class.
Some of these are safety-related features, such as
the combined rain/light sensor or the pivoting
cornering headlight. Comfort features of the top
class, such as the MMI operating system or
sophisticated functionalities for the mobile
baseplate, which is available ex-works, are part and
parcel of these new saloons.
The new Audi A6 has everything that is needed to
become the Number One model in the top-class
range.
It combines many different, attractive components
to form one unit. Design and performance go
hand-in-hand. The new Audi A6 will take over
as the most progressive vehicle.
The Audi A6 – the most progressive vehicle takes the lead

– Reading in position P of the automatic
transmission from the switch for gearbox
position P F305:
The signal is used to activate the integrated,
magnetic ignition key anti-removal lock. If the
vehicle battery is flat, the key can be removed by
pressing the mechanical emergency release.
– Reading in the information from the button for
access and start authorisation E408 (only for
vehicles with Advanced Key):
Fo r s a fe t y r e as o n s , t h e p o s i t i o n s o f t h e b u t to n fo r
access and start authorisation are evaluated by
the switch for access and start authorisation.

– Reading in the information from the antenna for
central locking and anti-theft warning
system R47:
The switch for access and start authorisation
passes the data, which the vehicle key sends via
remote control, on to the control unit for access
and start authorisation. The control unit
evaluates the data.
– Reading in the signal from the brake light
switch F (only for vehicles with Advanced Key):
To start the vehicle using the button for access
and start authorisation, the brake pedal must be
actuated.
– Exchanging data with the key using the
integrated read coil:
If a key is inserted into the switch for access and
start authorisation (= S contact on), the
electronics system transmits electric power into
the key via the read coil. The key then sends the
key identification into the switch via the
transponder and the read coil. This sends the
information to the control unit for access and
start authorisation.

1 The driver puts his/her hand into the finger well
of the door handle. The sensor for outer door
handle contact G415 sends the information
"Finger in finger well" to the antenna read-in unit
for keyless access authorisation J723.
2 The antenna read-in unit sends an alarm signal
to the vehicle key via the antenna for access and
start authorisation R134.
3 The antenna read-in unit sends a signal to the
vehicle key via all the antennae for access and
start authorisation.
4 Based on the signals, the vehicle key determines
the position on the vehicle and sends
information to the antenna for central locking
and anti-theft warning system R47.
5 The antenna for central locking and anti-theft
warning system receives the information.
The information is forwarded by the switch for
access and start authorisation E415 to the
control unit for access and start
authorisation J518, where it is evaluated.6 The control unit for access and start
authorisation sends the information "Opening
vehicle" on to the central control unit for the
convenience system J393 and to the door control
unit, whose door handle initiated the key query.
7 The door control unit, which received the
instruction from the control unit for access and
start authorisation, activates the lock unit, which
unlocks the door.
8 The central control unit for the convenience
system J393 sends the information "Opening
vehicle – Advanced Key" to CAN Convenience.
9 The normal unlocking process takes place.
This involves disarming, unlocking,
acknowledgement flashing and switching on of
the interior light. In addition to
acknowledgement flashing, the control unit for
access and start authorisation also sends the
lock status to the vehicle key via the switch for
access and start authorisation and the antenna
for central locking and anti-theft warning
system R47.
