Bus messages, ACC

For a more in-depth description of the car's bus system, see System overview, bus and diagnostic communication, petrol and System overview, bus and diagnostic communication, diesel .

ACC uses the following information:

Information Value/Units From Description
Electrically heated rear window, confirmation

ON/OFF

DICE

DICE sends electrically heated rear window ON/OFF. With ON the LED in the switch comes on.

Front passenger seat, occupied

YES/NO

TWICE (ACM for cars with PPS)

With YES and the automatic seat heating selected the heating pad will be on and the button LED will come on.

With NO, depending on outside temperature, the heating pad with be on automatically to heat the seat for a limited time. (Only AUTO control)

Vehicle speed, LH rear wheel

km/h

MIU

MIU sends vehicle speed (km/h). The value is used to engage air recirculation at high outside temperatures and to filter the outside temperature from SID.

Language

English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Swedish

SID

SID sends the selected language. The value is used to write text messages on SID in the selected language.

Rheostat value

0-100%

SID

SID sends the rheostat value (%). The value is used to regulate the brightness of the button background lighting.

Rheostat value, Night Panel

1-100%

SID

SID sends the rheostat value for Night Panel 0-100%. The value is used to regulate the button background lighting when Night Panel is ON.

Night Panel

ON/OFF

SID

SID sends Night Panel (ON/OFF). With ON the indicator and background lighting are dimmed.

Display lighting

1-100%

SID

SID sends display lighting value (%). The value is used to control indicator and background lighting.

Steering wheel location

Right/Left

TWICE

TWICE sends the steering wheel location (right/left). The value is used to decide which zone is the driver's zone.

Outside temperature (°C)

°C

SID

SID sends the outside temperature (°C). The value is used to calculate the temperature at head level for the front seat passenger and driver. Defaults values also used are:


time since engine last ran

cabin temperature

time since start

blended-air temperature

fan speed

solar irradiance


The value is dampened and filtered in the ACC unit and can therefore differ from the value shown on the main instrument unit display.

Engine Running

ON/OFF

ECM

ECM sends Engine Running (ON/OFF). With OFF the fan current is limited to 0 A.

Engine speed

rpm

ECM

ECM sends engine speed (rpm). Fault handling. Compare engine speed message and Engine Running.

Coolant temperature

°C

ECM

ECM sends coolant temperature (°C). The value is used to calculate fan current and air distribution position for cold starts.

Electric load

ON/OFF

EDC 16

EDC 16 sends a request on electric load during particle combustion. In turn ACC sends electrically heated rear window ON, to DICE. See, electrically heated rear window in ACC sends the following information.

A/C Compressor

ON/OFF

ECM

ECM confirms that the A/C compressor is ON/OFF for regulating air recirculation in auto mode

Diagnostics

DICE/

diagnostics tool

The diagnostics tool sends a diagnostic request via DICE (no unit). The value is used to answer the current request.



ACC sends the following information:

Information Value/Units User System Description
Text message

SID

ACC sends text messages when extended user programming is programmed/deprogrammed. The value is used by SID and is shown on the main instrument unit display.

Sound

SID

ACC sends Sound when extended user programming is activated/inactivated. The value is used by SID.

A/C

ON/OFF

DICE/EDC16

ACC sends A/C (ON/ OFF). ON sends when AC/OFF is not selected and the outside temperature exceeds 0°C, and fan speed is lowest, one fan step. The value is used by DICE and EDC16. Note that there are more locking conditions in DICE and EDC16.

Note:

As the outside temperature value is not allowed to rise unless the vehicle speed exceeds 30 km/h, A/C will not be requested if the outside temperature was below 0°C before the car was driven into the workshop (see activating: Outside temperature 20°C).

Electrically heated rear window

ON/OFF

DICE

ACC sends Rear window heater (ON/OFF). ON is sent when the rear window heater is turned on. The value is used by DICE.

Diagnostics

DICE/diagnostics tool

ACC answers to the diagnostics request from the diagnostics tool via DICE (no unit).
