2. General Information 2.1 On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) II The first generation of On-Board Diagnostics (called OBD I) was developed by the California Air Resources Board (ARB) and implemented in 1988 to monitor some of the emission control components on vehicles. As technology evolved and the desire to improve the On-Board Diagnostic system increased, a new generation of On-Board Diagnostic system was developed. This second generation of On-Board Diagnostic regulations is called “OBD II”.
2.3 EPB The EPB is a system which controls the brake force by pulling the parking cable as in conventional existing parking brakes. EPB system includes a DC motor, a gearbox, a screw, a nut, a current sensor, a Hall-effect force sensor, an acceleration sensor and an ECU. Generally, if a driver or a high level system operates the EPB system, the controller calculates a target force from the parking cable based on the car mass as well as the inclination of the road as measured by the acceleration sensor.
power steering and active steering systems (EPS or AFS) as well as parking assistance systems and curve lights. A scan tool can be used to obtain these data in degrees. The SAS is located in a sensor cluster in the steering column. The cluster always has more than one steering position sensor for redundancy and to confirm data. The ESC module must receive two signals to confirm the steering wheel position. These signals are often out of phase with each other.
blockage is reached) at which point regeneration is required to get the DPF back in to safety zone. DPF Light ON When the DPF light appears on the dash intermittently, this means there is a partial blockage in your DPF and a regeneration process is required. If you ignore it and keep on driving, eventually it will stay on permanently and in most severe cases brings on the Engine Management Light and even the Coil Light. If this happens, you will lose all power and the vehicle will fall into “Limp Mode”.
2.7 BMS Review The battery management system (BMS) is a critical electronic system of vehicle that monitors and manages a rechargeable battery. The purpose of the BMS is to guarantee safe and reliable battery operation by monitoring and evaluating the battery states, including state of charge, state of health, and state of life, controlling the charging and discharging of the battery, balancing the cell etc.
