    摘要: A control module for a vehicle is provided. The control module includes at least one device driver implemented by the control module. The at least one device driver generates a control signal to a device of the vehicle and generates a state of health signal based on an operational status of the device driver. A processor implemented by the engine control module monitors the state of health signal from the at least one device driver and generates a running reset command to the at least one device driver based on a fault status of the state of health signal.

    摘要: A vehicle diagnostics clearing system that detects a clear diagnostic faults flag and clears diagnostic faults from a control module includes a clear diagnostic faults flag monitoring module and a clear diagnostic faults module. The clear diagnostic faults flag monitoring module periodically monitors the clear diagnostic faults flag in the control module. When the clear diagnostic faults flag monitoring module detects that the clear diagnostic faults flag is set, the clear diagnostic faults module clears the diagnostic faults from the control module for a predetermined period.

    摘要: A system comprises a general-purpose memory, a lockable memory, a memory management unit, and a processor. The general-purpose memory includes data for a first set of addresses. The lockable memory includes data for a second set of addresses. The memory management unit selectively writes data to one of the general-purpose memory and the lockable memory and selectively locks the lockable memory by preventing writes to the lockable memory. The processor instructs the memory management unit to unlock the lockable memory before requesting a write to one of the second set of addresses.

    摘要: A control system for an engine comprises a fault determination module and a remedial action control module. The fault determination module generates a fault signal after detecting an infrastructure fault. The remedial action control module directs a throttle valve of the engine to a default position after receiving the fault signal, determines when the throttle valve is moving to the default position, and directs engine shutdown when the throttle valve is not moving to the default position.

    摘要: A temperature sensor diagnostic system for a vehicle comprises a deviation calculation module, a limits determination module, and a fault diagnostic module. The deviation calculation module calculates a deviation coefficient based on a time constant of a temperature sensor and a period between first and second temperatures measured by the temperature sensor, wherein the second temperature is measured after the first temperature. The limits determination module determines upper and lower temperature limits based on the first temperature and the deviation coefficient. The fault diagnostic module selectively diagnoses a fault in the temperature sensor when the second temperature is one of greater than the upper temperature limit and less than the lower temperature limit.

    摘要: A control system for regulating operation of a first vehicle system includes first and second sensors that respectively monitor first and second operating parameters of a plurality of operating parameters, and a module that receives signals generated by the first and second sensors. The module accesses a look-up table that is normally provided to determine a first one of the plurality of operating parameters based on a second one of the plurality of operating parameters and an actual value of an input parameter. The module determines a virtual value of the input parameter while the actual value of the input parameter is equal to zero. At least one of the first and second vehicle systems is normally regulated based on the input parameter. The module regulates operation of the first vehicle system based on the virtual value of the input parameter.

    摘要: A sensing system comprises a sensor that generates a calibration pulse and first sensor data and that transmits the first sensor data using a variable pulse width. A control module determines an age of the first sensor data based on a time difference between the calibration pulse and when the sensor data is at least one of received and used, that determines a rate of change of the sensor data based on N prior sensor data samples and the first sensor data samples, and that adjusts the first sensor data based on the time difference and the rate of change.

    摘要: A control system for controlling a throttle of a vehicle during a virtual bumper event is provided. The system includes: an enable module that selectively enables torque reduction based on at least one of a torque reduction request and an object detection signal; a throttle override module that overrides a pedal request by commanding a throttle position to reduce torque when the torque reduction is enabled; and a throttle learn module that commands the throttle position to gradually increase torque based on a position indicated by the pedal request when torque reduction is no longer enabled.
