 Panel Backlighting C05.03

500 — Terms and Abbreviations

ECU—Electronic Control Unit, typically connected to a datalink.
Maintained/Latching Switch—A switch that remains in the depressed position after being pushed.
Momentary Switch—A switch that returns to the neutral position after being pushed.
MSF—Modular Switch Field
SAM—Signal Detect and Actuation Module
SAM Cab—Signal Detect and Actuation Module Cab ("SAM Cabin"); this ECU controls mainly cab-related func-
tionality. See G02.04 — SAM Cab for more information.

501 — General Information

Panel Backlighting is the illumination of the ICU and various switch legends on the vehicle instrument panel, and
auxiliary control panels in the sleeper section. The following panels are backlit:
• Instrumentation Control Unit
• Front and Rear HVAC Control Panel
• MSF Switches
• Headlight Controls
• Lower and Upper Bunk Control Panels
• Door Switches
The backlighting circuit is a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. See Fig. 1 for an illustrated example of pulse
width modulation.
Each lighting mode has an independent illumination value, which is stored in the SAM Cab. When the lighting
mode transitions from inactive to active, the SAM Cab broadcasts the illumination value of that lighting mode on
the datalink to inform the ServiceLink user of the brightness level. For more information on lighting modes, refer
to Table 1.

The following modes take priority in the order shown when more than one lighting mode is active:
1. Marker Interrupt Mode
2. Accessory Mode
3. Daytime/Nighttime Mode

502 — Lamp Control Modes

Panel backlighting uses two lamp control modes: ECU switched lamps and theater lighting.

503 — ECU Switched Lamps

ECU switched lamps can be switched on and off by an ECU. The ECU receives an input from a remote momen-
tary switch or a datalink message. There are only two levels of operation, on or off.

504 — Theater Lighting

Theater lighting is switched on and off by the SAM Cab. The SAM Cab receives an input from a momentary sub
bus switch or a datalink message. When the lamp is activated, illumination is gradually increased from OFF to
100% over a period of time set by a parameter. When the lamp is deactivated, illumination gradually decreases
from 100% to OFF over a period of time set by a parameter. The parameter "par_backlighting_ramp_time" stores
the value of the length of the ramp up and ramp down periods. The maximum illumination value of the panel
lamps in accessory mode may be adjusted through the parameter "par_backlighting_ramp_time."

1.6 Activate any lighting mode.
1.7 Measure the voltage between terminals 12 and 7.
Is the voltage between 3.5V and 12V when the panel lamps are turned on?
YES! Go to test 2.
NO ! Check all connectors and verify they are securely fastened. Refer to Datalink Monitor template
"Panel Backlighting" to verify that all interlocks are met for the panel lamps to illuminate. Continue trou-
bleshooting as needed.
2. Test the headlight switch harness.
2.1 Remove connector E from the MSF.
2.2 Remove the connector from the headlight switch.
2.3 Perform a continuity test between the following terminal pairs:
• MSF connector E, terminal 7; headlight switch, terminal 6
• MSF connector E, terminal 12; headlight switch, terminal 7
Is there a low resistance?
YES ! Connect all connectors and perform a functional test of the system to determine if the problem is in-
termittent. If the problem continues, install a test headlight switch. If the test headlight switch illuminates,
replace the headlight switch.
NO ! Repair the harness.

bleshooting for more information.
2. Troubleshoot the Cabin CAN datalink.
2.1 Load Datalink Monitor Template "CAN Datalinks Communication Test" and check the ECU Hardware
boxes for the CAN ECUs.
2.2 Make a note of which ECUs are not communicating.
Is the hardware part number displayed for the MSF and SAM Cab?
YES! The MSF and SAM Cab are communicating on the Cabin CAN datalink. Perform a functional test to
determine whether the problem is intermittent. Continue troubleshooting as needed.
NO ! Go to test 3.
3. Troubleshoot Cabin CAN datalink connection to ECU.
3.1 Turn the key to the OFF position.
3.2 Turn the load disconnect switch to the OFF position, or remove the negative cable from the batteries.
3.3 Remove the MSF from the dash.
3.4 Remove connector D.
3.5 Insert conducting probes into terminals 3 and 5.
3.6 Measure the resistance between terminals 3 and 5.
Does the multimeter read 60 ohms?
YES! The Cabin CAN wiring is intact. Check all connectors and make sure they are secure. Make sure
that the interlocks are met to turn on the panel lamps.
NO ! Go to test 4.
4. Troubleshoot Cabin CAN wiring to the MSF.
With the ignition in the OFF position, measure the resistance between the following terminal pairs:
• MSF connector D, terminal 3; Starpoint connector, terminal 12
• MSF connector D, terminal 5; Starpoint connector, terminal 10
