Auto High Beam Assist (AHBA) Activation for Land Rover & Jaguar
LR Retrofit activates Auto High Beam Assist on Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles. We use genuine JLR diagnostic equipment to enable the factory AHBA function in your vehicle’s camera and lighting modules. You receive a vehicle that automatically switches between high and low beam based on traffic and lighting conditions.
What Auto High Beam Assist Provides
Auto High Beam Assist uses the forward-facing camera to detect oncoming traffic, vehicles ahead and ambient lighting. It switches the high beam on and off automatically. This function improves night visibility and reduces the need for manual high beam control on dark roads and motorways.
- We enable the AHBA feature in the Image Processing Module.
- We activate the high beam control parameters in the Body Control Module.
- We update the Car Configuration File with the correct AHBA build data.
- We configure the instrument cluster to display AHBA status messages.
JLR Technical Process
- We read your vehicle’s Car Configuration File using the JLR DoIP diagnostic interface.
- We compare the stored lighting parameters with the factory As-Built data for your VIN.
- We enable the Auto High Beam Assist feature in the Image Processing Module.
- We programme the Body Control Module to respond to the camera’s high beam commands.
- We verify the function with live data, camera alignment and a static lighting test.
Technical Detail
The Auto High Beam Assist system uses the forward-facing camera mounted behind the windscreen. We decode the Car Configuration File and activate the AHBA parameters that match your vehicle’s exact build specification. We programme the Image Processing Module and the Body Control Module in one diagnostic session. This process preserves the original JLR software architecture and avoids generic coding tools that trigger warning lights or system faults.
We calibrate the camera sensitivity and high beam switch timing so the system responds precisely to oncoming traffic. Your vehicle maintains full dealer service compatibility after the activation. The AHBA function then works seamlessly with Lane Keep Assist and Traffic Sign Recognition on supported models.
