Abstract

The invention proposes a motor vehicle optical module for emitting at least two light-emitting segments that can be activated selectively. The module includes a substrate and at least two light sources mounted on the substrate, each of which can be activated selectively to emit light rays. Primary optical means are adapted to form primary light beams from the light rays emitted by each light source. A secondary optical means is adapted to project each of the primary light beams to form the light-emitting segments, wherein optical means includes a single support that carries the substrate, the primary optical means and the secondary optical means, and in that it includes means for positioning the primary optical means relative to the substrate.
