31 FA G A d istinction can b e m ade between three dif ferent situations: - rest position (normal position w hen driving). - v enting s teered leading rear axle (increase p ressure on driving a xle). - v entilating steered leading rear axle (return to rest). Operation o f traction c ontrol m ode is limited to a m aximum time: 9 0 s econds. T raction control m ode can only b e operated again a fter a pause o f 5 0 s econds. By now adjusting a time relay (G095) to a delay time of 60 8 s econds, the pause period is fulfilled. REST POSITION When the traction c ontrol m ode switch C882 is operated (connection between contacts 5 - 1), a voltage is applied to c onnection point 15 of time relay G 095 through fuse E062, wire 1221, contacts 5-3 o f C 883 and wire 4563. During normal d riving, the traction c ontrol mode switch contact (C709) is open. The switch is spring-loaded. VENTING STEERED LEADING REAR AXLE Pressing and then releasing the traction control m ode switch activates the traction control m ode (vents s teered leading rear axle). The time relay (G095) is now switched on for a period o f 6 0 s econds. C ontacts 30 - 8 7 a re closed. V o ltage is now applied from the VIC to connection point 1 o f BV084. The V IC will only supply a voltage below the p rogrammed speed. This energises the solenoid v alve (B084), v enting the bellows of the s teered leading rear axle. A s a result a g reater load is placed on the d riving axle (more traction). When the 6 0 8 s econds have e lapsed, the connection 30 - 8 7 o f time relay G095 is broken. As a result, the v oltage on valve B 084 is also lost. There is a s afety m echanism to prevent overload of the a xle. The p roximity switch (E542) monitors the a xle load. When the m aximum value is reached, the proximity s witch (E542) is activated and a supply v oltage is applied to c onnection point 1 of relay G 427. Relay G 427 is now energised thereby breaking c ontacts 3 - 4 . T he air-vent valve (B084) is no longer activated, so that it is no longer vented, but is immediately v entilated. 0202 ᓻ 2-128 5 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Electrical system series 65/75/85 CF |
