Includes standard wiring.
This device reads the vehicle's CANBUS to provide signals, including high beams and parking lights. When combined with compatible wiring (sold separately), it also provides additional signals, such as turn signals, fog lights, parking lights, reverse lights, and daytime running lights (DRL).
With the advent of modern vehicles, where relays and voltage cables no longer exist to provide services, it has become much more complex to find signals, especially for synchronizing high-beam headlights, synchronizing reverse headlights, contact-activated circuit breakers, and a long list of other functions.
In vehicle technology, the use of CANBUS for communication between components has become increasingly widespread. Little by little, the communication trend has evolved from simple connections between control units (years ago) to the present day, where even headlights no longer receive power for each function. The main headlight usually has a single power cable and all functions are managed by a control unit that receives information via CANBUS.
Currently, we use signal emulators to emulate a constant voltage of 12V, receiving low-voltage pulses (CANBUS).
This new product from ARB is a signal emulator that can copy constant voltage (12V) and receive low-voltage pulses. In other words, when the car's CANBUS is connected to ARB's CAN Connect, it sends information, which it receives in pulses, and can power a relay at constant voltage.
Currently, the ARB CAN Connect + specific wiring (Ref: ARB-CAN5770) can be used for VW Amarok (2023+) and Ford RANGER (2022+). It can be installed without specific wiring in the Toyota Land Cruiser 250.
In the specific case of the Land Cruiser 250, there are two* lighting technologies, both of which are compatible with ARB's CAN Connect:
- *AHB à Automatic High Beam
- *AHS à Adaptive Hi-beam System
