Status indicator, location/function

The status indicator in the TELE AID pushbutton switch (S93/3)serves for checking the function of the TELE AID system.

Every time the TELE AID system is switched on the status indicator comes on for approx. 4 s and signals the readiness of TELE AID for an emergency call. Then the status indicator goes out.

If a TELE AID emergency call (not with taxi emergency call) is triggered the status indicator starts flashing (0.5 s on, 0.5 s off, ...). If it was not possible to transmit a TELE AID emergency call (data and voice) nor a 112 emergency call the status indicator comes on. If a voice connection is completed the status indicator returns to the same status as before the emergency call actuation.

If the TELE AID system is in the diagnosis mode the status indicator also starts flashing.

A TELE AID system error is present when the status indicator does not go out 5 s after switching on or when it comes on at a later time.

Behavior of status indicator in the TELE AID pushbutton switch (S93/3)

Permanent illumination of the status indicator can have the following causes:

External error

 Power supply too low

 No or incorrect SIM card installed

 Communication with emergency tensioning retractor control module with airbag (AB) (N2/2, except models 215, 220) or restraint system control module (N2/7, models 215, 220) interrupted

 Communication with traction system control module (N47) interfered

 Malfunction of emergency call pushbutton switch (S93/3)

 Error of emergency alarm actuation switch (S62/6) (only with code 930, taxi emergency call)

 Error of GPS reception (antenna system)

The telephone antenna depends on the model

Model 129: rod antenna (A28)

Models 202, 208.3, 210, 220: telephone antenna (A2/49a1)

Model 215: telephone antenna (A2/22)

 No reception over TELE AID substitute antenna (A2/50) or telephone antenna (A2/49a1)

 CTEL transmitter and receiver (A35) or connection to emergency call system control module (TELE AID, A35/8) erroneous

Internal error

 Vehicle is not authorized or is in the progress of authorization

 Memory defect on emergency call system control module (TELE AID, A35/8)

 Rollover sensor (B66) defective

 GPS reception erroneous

 The PIN (Personal Identification Number) has not been stored in the emergency call system control module (TELE AID, A35/8) by the user (e.g. after changing PIN number)



The emergency call system control module (TELE AID, A35/8) can be coded with the hand-held tester so that the status indicator does not come on even when the system is not authorized (however, all further system errors are indicated).
