How a ride height sensor works?
The ride height sensor sends signals to the ECU, which causes the suspension to react while driving over bumps or due to heavy loads on the vehicle to provide a smoother ride. It is usually fitted to the frame of the automobile or to components of the suspension system.
How does automatic headlight beam level control system work?
The automatic headlight beam level control system regulates the orientation of the reflectors of the headlights in relation to the posture of the vehicle that has been detected by sensor. Thus, it is a system that maintains the headlight beams to a constant level while the vehicle is being driven. This system is optional equipment.
What do you need to know about self levelling headlights?
With manual systems, drivers have to adjust the inclination of the headlamp themselves by means of a switch. There are pneumatically and electrically operated systems.
How does the Xenon headlamp levelling system work?
Today, almost all the vehicles fitted with xenon headlights are equipped with dynamic headlamp levelling systems which also react to driving-related changes in inclination, such as acceleration and braking. The block diagram shows the design of a dynamic headlamp levelling system.
What’s the difference between semi static and dynamic headlamp levelling?
For the automatic headlamp levelling systems, we differentiate between two systems: Semi-static and dynamic headlamp levelling systems. The semi-static headlamp levelling system only corrects changes in headlamp inclination due to changes in load status.
