A question has come up during a discussion, on the best possible location for my FLASH••A••BRAKE™ unit, when a customer desires to have all three lights controlled by the adaptive brake light system, just like the OE system does.

Say, we have a SAM with three different outputs for E3e4; E4e4 and E21 - i.e. left, right and the top stop signal lamps.

It is logical to assume that, the signals transmitted to all three are perfectly synchronised, and therefore can be intercepted by a single unit, and relayed thereafter (<0.075sec). Essentially this is saying that, the split signal is implemented for logistical and manufacturing reasons - easy to separate at the SAM, no extra soldering/joints, wiring looms clearly defined, etc.

I would love to have an informed confirmation of this assumption though.
