Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Switch, Tunnel Console, Front And Rear (2008-)
Switch, tunnel console, available in two versions, tunnel console front (1) and tunnel console rear (2) (only C70).
Both these are keypads with room for two switches in each.
If the vehicle is equipped with "blind spot" warning (BLIS), and/or parking assistance (PAS), the tunnel console front, switch (1) is used to open and close the roof.
In this case, the switch is directly connected to the Convertible Roof Module (CRM) and is then not a LIN node.
Switch, tunnel console rear (2) communicates with Climate control module (CCM) via LIN communication and controls activation and deactivation of "blind spot" warning (BLIS) and/or parking assistance system (PAS).
If the vehicle is not equipped with "blind spot" warning (BLIS) or parking assistance system (PAS), there is no switch, tunnel console rear (2).
