Agenda
Slide: 2
Basic Concepts A Visit to the Doctor
Something is wrong with the car but what?

Ask questions and run tests
ECUs know their own health
ECUs can communicate this information
Isolate the problem
Make the fix

Repair (replace) failing part(s)
Is the problem gone?

Go back and repeat questions and tests
Clean bill of health?
Slide: 5
But How Does it Know??

Onboard Diagnostics
Self tests are executed in parallel to actual system operation
Faults are detected and logged internally
Internal test routines are available for single-shot execution
Functionality created to interface with off-board diagnostic tools
Slide: 6
Why Do We Need It?

Who Cares?
Slide: 11
Applications and Users Engineering

ECU development (test implementation and functionality)
Vehicle integration (verify interaction with other ECUs)
Calibration (monitor/calibrate performance, hot/cold trips)
Testing (proving grounds, component and vehicle durability testing)
EMC testing (electro-magnetic compatibility with rest of vehicle & FCC)
Slide: 12
Applications and Users Manufacturing
EOL testing (verify vehicle was built correctly and in working order)
Flash programming (program ECU at supplier or on assembly line)
Configuration and calibration (configure ECU on assembly line)
Repair bay (identify failures and verify repairs)
Audit bay (verify quality and compliance)

Slide: 13
Applications and Users Service
In-service emissions testing
Troubleshoot customer complaints
Identify failures and warrantee issues
Verify repairs
Flash re-programming updates

Slide: 14
Evolution, or Revolution?
Slide: 15
Implementation Concept How Does It Work?

ECU communicates with offboard test device

1. Tester asks a question
2. ECU responds
Client-server relationship
Tester is client
ECU is server
ECU only speaks when
spoken to
Diagnostic messaging only
happens when tester is
present
Not part of normal mode
ECU-to-ECU messaging
Slide: 16
Evolutionary History Point-to-Point Links
Proprietary point-to-point links (start in early 1980s)

Implied address tin cans on a string model
Simple UART-based line drivers
Simple send-a-byte/get-a-byte protocols
Everything was proprietary
Still hanging on in production
Slide: 17
Evolutionary History Point-to-Point Links (continued)
Standardized point-to-point links (start in early 1990s)

Logically addressed telephone party-line model
Still UART-based line drivers
More powerful send-a-message/get-a-message protocols
Standardized regulations and tools began to appear
ISO-9141 (K-line) becomes global standard
Still in wide use
Slide: 18
Evolutionary History Multiplexed Data Links
Proprietary multiplexed networks (start in late 1980s)

Logically addressed Ethernet model with collision arbitration
Network carries non-diagnostic messages between ECUs
Back to proprietary protocols and interface hardware
Industry diverged
Lack of standardization precluded use with legislated diagnostics
Still hanging on in production
Slide: 19
Evolutionary History Multiplexed Data Links (continued)
Standardized multiplexed networks (start in mid 1990s)

Industry standard network hardware
Industry standard protocols
Industry standard tools
Rapidly replacing all previous vehicle network types
Industry and regulatory convergence is here
Slide: 20
Legislative Considerations

2013-11-25
OBD What are Legislated Diagnostics?
OBD On-Board Diagnostics or Legislated Diagnostics

Emissions-related diagnostics required by the government

Standardized networks, protocols and test tools
Meet the requirements or pay a fine
All OEMs selling vehicles in the US must comply
Enhanced Diagnostics Non-legislated Diagnostics

Every OEM defines their own enhanced diagnostics strategy

Proprietary protocol, data dictionary and application
Driven by quality and warranty, not the government
Covers entire vehicle not just emissions
Slide: 2
Legislative Groups Whos Driving?

CARB (California Air Resources Board)
Earliest driver of emissions legislation for air quality improvement
EPA (US Environmental Protection Agency

Typically adopts CARB standards
EU (European Commission)
Fairly loose in early years, recently more stringent
Other Countries
See following tables

Slide: 4
Taken from Dave Ferris (GM Emission Compliance & Certification) presentation at the SAE 2013 On-Board Diagnostics Symposium
Slide: 5
Standards Organizations Whos Driving?
SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers)

Primarily a US activity
Most sensitive to EPA and CARB requirements
Most sensitive to US industry participants
More focus on global topics, as legislation goes global
ISO
ISO specific global driver
Sensitive to US, but also UN, EU and future legislation
Sensitive to all industry participants worldwide

Directing the Diagnostic Traffic
How does the tester get a diagnostic

message to a single ECU, anywhere on the
network, or to a group of ECUs on the
network?
Slide: 3
CAN Message Structure
11 bit or 29 bit
Slide: 4
Directing the Diagnostic Traffic

CAN IDs
Can use either 11-bit or 29-bit
Most automotive applications use 11-bit
Each ECU has two primary CAN IDs for diagnostics

one for physical (point-to-point) requests from tester
one for responses back to the tester
Each ECU will also support one/more functional CAN IDs for
broadcast messages from the tester
The tester has to know the CAN IDs for every ECU
Slide: 5
Standard CAN Format: 11-Bit Identifier

Typically usage for diagnostics: ECU Identification

Target ECU ID or Functional Request ID for diagnostic requests (source address

not required since KWP & UDS only allow one diagnostic tester on the bus at
one time)
Source ECU ID for diagnostic responses
Most OEMs have their own ID assignment standards

Identifier "identifies" the message and includes message priority
Identifier 0 is highest priority message

Automotive Diagnostic Communication Model

For the diagnostic standards
ISO14230 (KWP)
ISO14229 (UDS)
The ECU only speaks when spoken to

Listens for requests from tester

Provides diagnostic data only on request
Never sends a diagnostic request
After assembly may never be used again
Off-board
tester
ECU 1
ECU 1-Perform this task

I did it, heres the results
The tester runs the whole show

ECU 2
Must request data it wants

Must know ID of ECU to get data from
ECUs provide data requested
Does not listen to normal bus traffic
Slide: 11
Addressing Scheme
Off-board

Each ECU has at least two

diagnostic CAN IDs (simplified)
one/more for requests from tester
one for responses to tester

Transport Protocol
The tasks of the transport protocol may be summarized as follows:
Segmentation and reassembly of data blocks larger than those

that can be transported per message in the underlying Data Link
Layer (Example: CAN
Only 8 bytes in one message)
Control of the data flow of individual messages
Error detection

Understanding UDS (ISO 14229)
June, 2014
V 0.01
2013-11-25
ISO 14229 in a Nutshell
Paraphrased from the ISO 14229 abstract:

ISO 14229:2006 specifies a set of data link independent

diagnostic services, which allow a diagnostic tester (client)
to control diagnostic functions in an on-vehicle Electronic
Control Unit (server).
It specifies services that allow the client to stop, or

resume, non-diagnostic messaging on the data link.
It does NOT apply to non-diagnostic messaging.
It does NOT specify implementation requirements.
It applies to a single client that may be temporarily, or

permanently, connected to the vehicle diagnostic data link
and several servers connected directly, or indirectly.
Slide: 2
ISO 14229 Diagnostic Services
What is a diagnostic service?

A kind of a task for an ECU to execute on command
Each service is defined by a request/response message pair
Test device sends service request message to ECU
ECU sends service response message to test device
This is the client/server communication model we discussed
Lets look at this model in a network example
Slide: 3
KWP/UDS Diagnostic Communication Model

Two similar diagnostic standards
ISO14229 (UDS)
ISO14230 (KWP)
The ECU only speaks when spoken to

Listens for service requests from tester

Provides diagnostic data only on request
Never sends a diagnostic request
Not used for normal control operations
Off-board
tester
ECU 1
ECU1-Perform this task (service ID)

ECU1 I did it, heres the results
The tester runs the whole show

ECU 2
Must request data it wants

Request data from single ECU ID..
Or send functional request (broadcast)
ECUs provide data requested
Slide: 4
ISO14229 Diagnostic Service Example

Service 22 ReadDataByIdentifier
The most basic and intuitive service
Tester is asking ECU for some piece of data
Lets ask for the engine speed
Tester sends request message (hex bytes) 22 F4 0C

22 = ReadDataByIdentifier service request identifier (SID)
F40C = Engine Speed data identifier (DID)
ECU sends response message 62 F4 0C 0F A0

62 = ReadDataByIdentifier service response identifier (SID)
F40C = Engine Speed data identifier (DID)
0FA0 = engine speed data value (0x0FA0 = 1000 RPM)
Slide: 5
ISO14229 Service Identifiers (SIDs)

Every service has a one-byte numeric identifier associated with it
This one-byte number is known as the service identifier or SID
The SID and the name of the service can be used interchangeably
The SID is the first byte of the request message
The first byte of the positive response message = SID + 0x40
From our previous engine speed example:

The ReadDataByIdentifier service has an SID of 0x22
You can refer to the service as either:

ReadDataByIdentifier
Service 22
- or
The first byte of the request message is 0x22 (the SID)
The first byte of the pos response msg is 0x62 (the SID + 0x40)

ISO14229 Service Subfunctions
What is a service subfunction?

Services indicate the kind of task, but not always the exact task
Subfunctions are specific tasks a service can perform
The subfunction is always the first byte after the SID
Not all services have subfunctions (service 22 does not)
But some do (service 11 does)
Slide: 9

Which services have subfunctions?

Session & Security Management
Some diagnostic features should not be easily accessible.

Examples:
I/O Control
Flash Programming
Writing ECU Configuration Information
How are these protected?

By using special sessions or security
Slide: 29
Session Management
ECUs can support several sessions
Typical ECU sessions are: Default Session, Extended Session and

Programming Session
Some diagnostic services can only be executed in a special

session
Sessions can support different timing parameters
As a result of a diagnostic service a state transition can be

effected
Normally an ECU starts in default session after power on

ISO14229 Service 19 ReadDTCInformation
The most valuable and frequently used service

Tester asks the ECU for its state of health and any observed failures
Failures are specified with a three-byte identifier called a DTC
DTC = Diagnostic Trouble Code
Allows tester to read fault-related data stored in ECU memory

This is the very foundation of all vehicle diagnostics
ECUs monitor their own state of health with diagnostic monitors
These monitors generate a lot of data
This data is stored indefinitely in the ECUs non-volatile memory
Testers can recall this data at a later time during testing and service
When ECU diagnoses itself with a failure, it stores a DTC
Slide: 33
ISO14229 Service 19 ReadDTCInformation

Available sub functions of service 19:
01 reportNumberOfDTCByStatusMask
02 reportDTCByStatusMask

ISO14229 Service 19 Example

Lets suppose we want to know what DTCs are problems right now
Tester sends request message 19 02 08
19 = ReadDTCInformation service request identifier (SID)
02 = reportDTCByStatusMask mode (19 has many different modes)
08 = confirmedDTC status mask (just DTCs whose status = failed)
ECU sends response message 59 02 08 06 20 13 8A
59 = ReadDTCInformation service response identifier (SID)
02 = reportDTCByStatusMask mode
08 = confirmedDTC status mask
062013 = DTC Generator Control Circuit circuit open
8A = status mask for DTC 062013
Slide: 35
ISO14229 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
ECUs communicate their failures via three-byte numeric identifiers

This number is known as a diagnostic trouble code or DTC
Root DTC
The first two bytes (16 bits) of the DTC
Identifies the ECU component that has failed
The upper two bits of the root identify the major system
>
00 = P-code for Powertrain
>
01 = C-code for Chassis
>
10 = B-code for Body
>
11 = U-code for Network (I dont get it either)
FTB Failure Type Byte

The last byte (8 bits) of the DTC
Identifies the failure mode detected by the ECU

ISO14229 DTC Failure Type Bytes

What failure type bytes are there?
A lot!
Consult ISO15031-6 for the complete list
What does the failure type byte tell me?

Exactly how the component specified by the root DTC failed
This ties in with the FMEA activity Failure Mode Engineering Analysis
What failure modes can a component exhibit?
There is probably an FTB pre-defined that meets your needs
Example FTBs from ISO15031-6

4B over temperature
72 actuator stuck open
7B low fluid level
Slide: 38

ISO14229 FTBs and Wiring Faults

Wiring faults are the most common type of failure
Wiring is difficult to install properly
Little or no protection from pulling, bending, cutting, interference
Common wiring failures and their Failure Type Bytes (FTBs)

11 circuit short to ground

12 circuit short to battery

line exposed to ground - voltage pulled low
line exposed to power - voltage pulled high
13 open circuit
line broken - resistance is infinite
Open circuit accounts for most failures and deserves attention

Slide: 39
ISO14229 DTC Status Byte
DTCs have status information associated with them

There are eight independent states possible
Each state is represented as a bit in a status byte
Bit 7 warningIndicatorRequest
Bit 6 testNotCompletedThisMonitoringCycle
Bit 5 testFailedSinceLastClear
Bit 4 testNotCompletedSinceLastClear
Bit 3 confirmedDTC
Bit 2 pendingDTC
Bit 1 testFailedThisMonitoringCycle
Bit 0 testFailed
Slide: 40

ISO14229 DTC Status Byte Example
Lets go back to our service 19 example...

Tester sends request message 19 02 08
19 = ReadDTCInformation service request identifier (SID)
02 = reportDTCByStatusMask mode
We want to read just the DTCs with a specific status
Could be any number of DTCs coming back in response
08 = confirmedDTC status mask

In this case, we want just those that are confirmed failures
08 = 0000 1000; bit 3 confirmedDTC = 1, all others = 0
Slide: 41
ISO14229 DTC Status Byte Example (continued)
Lets go back to our service 19 example...

ECU sends response message 59 02 08 06 20 13 8A
59 = ReadDTCInformation service response identifier (SID)
02 = reportDTCByStatusMask mode (echoed from request)
08 = confirmedDTC status mask (echoed from request)
062013 = DTC Generator Control Circuit circuit open
8A = status mask for DTC 062013

8A = 1000 1010
>
Bit 7 warningIndicatorRequested = 1
>
Bit 3 confirmedDTC = 1
>
Bit 1 testFailedThisMonitoringCycle = 1
>
So, not only is the DTC confirmed,

but it continues to fail and is illuminating the engine lamp

Only suppresses positive response, not negative response
Slide: 45
ISO14229 SPRMIB Example

First, without using the SPRMIB
Tester sends request message 85 01
85 = ControlDTCSetting service request identifier (SID)
01 = on, the subfunction
ECU sends response message C5 01

C5 = ControlDTCSetting service response identifier (SID)
01 = on, the subfunction
Now, lets set the SPRMIB to 1

Tester sends request message 85 81
85 = ControlDTCSetting service request identifier (SID)
81 = on, the subfunction with the SPRMIB (upper bit) set to 1
ECU turns DTC setting on, but does not send a positive response
Slide: 46

ISO14229 Service 2F InputOutputControlByIdentifier

Some DIDs represent I/O values
I/O devices and values are also DIDs
I/O DIDs can be controlled by testers
Control modes
02 = freezeCurrentState
Hold the DID at its current value
For inputs this means ignore incoming changes
For outputs this means locking the value
03 = shortTermAdjustment
Temporarily control the DID value
For inputs this means substituting for the incoming value
For outputs this means overriding the control algorithm
00 = returnControlToEcu
Slide: 47
ISO14229 Service 2F Example
Lets suppose we want to control the cabin fan

Tester sends request message 2F 9B 1D 03 64
2F = InputOutputCotnrolByIdentifier service request identifier (SID)
9B1D = Cabin Fan Speed data identifier (DID)
03 = shortTermAdjustment (temporary override/control)
64 = Cabin Fan Speed data value (0x64 = 100rpm)
ECU sends response message 6F 9B 1D 03 64

6F = WriteDataByIdentifier service response identifier (SID)
9B1D = Cabin Fan Speed data identifier (DID)
03 = shortTermAdjustment (temporary override/control)
64 = Cabin Fan Speed data value (0x64 = 100rpm)
Slide: 48
24
ISO14229 Service 3E TesterPresent
Doesnt do anything, but helps manage diagnostic applications

Some diagnostic services have persistent behavior, like:
Diagnostic session changes via Service 10
Security access changes via Service 27
Controlling DTC setting via Service 85
Output device control via Service 2F
Routines run via Service 31
These services must be actively supervised by the tester

They drive behavior outside the normal operations of the ECU
If the tester should lose contact with the ECU, the service must stop
TesterPresent allows the tester to stay in touch with the ECU,

but doesnt cause the ECU to do anything extra
Slide: 49
ISO14229 Service 3E Example

Tester sends request to stop setting DTCs 85 02
Temporary state that only makes sense during test procedure
But what if the tester is accidentally disconnected?
The ECU can not stay in this mode forever
How does the ECU know how long to continue?
There is a timeout on all such persistent services
If ECU stops getting requests, it must assume the tester disconnected
Left unsupervised by the tester, the ECU must stop all persistent services
Tester sends a TesterPresent request 3E 00

There is nothing more for the ECU to do but continue not setting DTCs
The tester send yet another TesterPresent message 3E 00

The ECU continues not setting DTCs
This can go on for as long as the tester wants it to continue

Slide: 50
25
ISO14229 Service 3E TesterPresent
Some important timing parameters:

P2 = Maximum time to start response after message sent

Cyclic Diagnostic Messages (e.g. DM1)
- or -
Tester

ECU
Tester
[[Source ID] [Requested Service ID + Requested Data]]
(Services can be data requests, fault code

requests, output control, special test requests,
security access, reprogramming requests, etc.)
Slide: 5
J1939 and ISO15765 Coexistence on the same CAN bus
There 2 are ways defined to allow for ISO 15765 communication to occur on
a J1939 bus
One way is using J1939 PGNs. The structure of the CAN ID is exactly the
same as any other J1939 message
There are 4 reserved J1939 PGNs for this purpose:

0x00CD00 Mixed Addressing Functional
0x00CE00 Mixed Addressing Physical
0x00DA00 Normal fixed addressing Physical
0x00DB00 Normal fixed addressing Functional
Note that these PGNs are Destination Specific and both data page bits are
zero!
In current projects within Deere this method is used, with PGN 0x00DA00
Slide: 6
J1939 and ISO15765 Coexistence
The second way formats the CAN ID in a way that will not interfere with any
other CAN IDs on the J1939 Network
The two Data Page bits (EDP and DP) are set to 1. Differentiates these
messages from any other on the network to avoid conflicts.
Everything else in the CAN ID is particular to ISO-15765 definition
Note that the Source Address and Destination Address fields shown here are
NOT the same as the J1939 Source and Destination Addresses!
There are other means defined in ISO17565 to use both 11 bit and 29 bit
CAN IDs which are not compatible with J1939. These might be used in
automobile networks for example.

Requirements unclear or misleading

Room for (mis-) interpretation
Additional need to readjust, results in increased efforts and delay
Requirements incomplete
One single requirement not comprehensive
In its entirety, i.e. requirements missing
Additional need to readjust, results in increased efforts and delay
Requirements too concrete or solution-oriented in the

beginning
Solution space is restricted without a need (e. g. prevents reuse)
Slide: 3/26
Formalization
Data formats for requirements need flexibility

One format covering many different domains
Everything needs to gets in (often no specification quality)
Little restrictions, little formalization
Use Domain specific specification formats for requirements

documentation? No!
Too formal
Too precise
Focused on one domain, inappropriate for others
Differentiate requirements and domain specific specifications!

Diagnostic Testers
Working for multiple vehicles lines (and their ECUs)
Usually generic and data driven
Based on standardized APIs (SAE PassThru, ISO D-PDU-API,

ISO MVCI)
Diagnostic data contains all information relevant for vehicle

and ECU diagnostics
Diagnostic communication: Protocol, settings, ...
Diagnostic services: Semantics, structure, content, ...
Diagnostic data: Meaning, interpretation, units, ...
Diagnostic trouble codes: Meaning, related snapshot data, ...
Security mechanisms
All in different languages and localization
Slide: 11/26
Diagnostic Testers
Huge amount of data requires efficient mechanisms for

data minimization, e.g. by avoiding redundancies
Runtime format for tester parameterization
Often binary (performance and encryption)
Often vehicle manufacturer-specific, often tool-vendor-specific
Contents often generated from ODX (ISO 22901-1)
Original data format, used in engineering

Mostly XML based
Often vehicle manufacturer-specific, often tool-vendor-specific,

e.g. FORD MDX or Vector CDD
Often exported to ODX (ISO 22901-1) for data exchange

Summary
A seamless process and concerted tools are key factors for

the efficient and effective development of vehicle diagnostics.
The efficiency of subsequent process steps depends on the

quality of the initial requirements.
Different diagnostic use cases result in rather different data

models and formats.
Neither ODX nor AUTOSAR ECUC are suitable to document

and manage requirements.
AUTOSAR ECUC and ODX complement one another, neither of

them can cover the subject and purpose of the other.
An efficient tool chain supports data reuse and (re-)

synchronization.
The Vector diagnostic tool chain already covers these features.

The Future of Diagnostic Technology
June, 2014
V 0.01
2013-11-25
UDS Implementation Trends
All European car makers already switched to UDS standard

The American market is diversified:

The first car with broad UDS implementation is on the street

since 2004.
Most OEMs have moved, or are moving, to UDS
The Asian market is less certain

Some OEMs change, some seem to just wait and see...
Slide: 2
Where is Diagnostics Heading?

More Complexity?
More Standards?
More legislation?
More Cooperation Between OEMs?
Worldwide Harmonization?
What about the end customer?

Is there a point of diminishing

returns?
Are automobiles becoming like VCRs?
Can technicians keep up?
Slide: 3
Hot Topics in Diagnostics Today

Access to vehicle data by aftermarket plug-in tools

I/M Stations
Insurance dongles
Personal data loggers / telematics systems
Multiple testers on the bus simultaneously
CAN ID support for more than 8 legislated ECUs
Differences in legislative requirements between:

Pass car & trucks
US, EU & Rest of World
DOIP (ISO 13400)
CAN FD impact on diagnostic specs
Security of vehicle data & functionality
Right to Repair laws
Prognostics
Slide: 4
CAN FD
Slide: 6
What is CAN-FD?
CAN-FD (proposed to be ISO 11898-7) is a serial communications

protocol similar to and compatible with ISO 11898-1
Designed as a higher bandwidth network compatible with CAN
Supports dual bit rates within a message

Arbitration-Phase same bit rate as standard CAN
Data-Phase sub-multiple of controller clock rate
Supports larger data lengths than standard CAN

Offers increased data transmission efficiency
Transmit/receive up to 64 bytes/message
Slide: 7
What is CAN-FD?
Differences from CAN are limited to CAN-FD controller hardware

Usable with existing CAN transceivers up to 2-3 Mbit/sec
Legacy SW usable
Data field up to 8 bytes in length
System cost similar to standard CAN
Progressively introduce CAN-FD nodes into standard networks

First commercial silicon to be available at end of 2012

Dual rate clock, DLC 8
Slide: 8
Why CAN-FD?
CAN networks reached practical maximums of data transfer
Many CAN buses have reached 50%-95%+ bus load level
Standard CAN messages contain 50% overhead

Standard CAN ~ 129 bits/message for 64 bits of data*
Extended CAN ~ 154 bits/message for 64 bits of data*
At a given bus load only ~40-50% of the bandwidth is used to

exchange useful data
Other protocols have much higher data throughput rate

Ethernet UDP ~64K bytes/datagram, 64 bytes overhead (ipV4)
FlexRay 254 bytes/frame, 8 bytes of overhead

* - excluding stuff bits
Slide: 9
Why CAN-FD?
Current CAN bus speeds 1Mbit/sec

Limited by physical characteristics of in-vehicle wiring

Most auto networks 500Kbit/sec
J1939 networks = 250Kbit/sec
Other buses run much faster

Ethernet 10Mbits/sec +
FlexRay 5-10 Mbits/sec (more if 2 channels are used)
CAN bus speed also limited due to the In-Frame Response (IFR)
mechanism
ACK generation delay in CAN controller
Propagation delay through the transceiver
Propagation delay over wire
Slide: 10
Basic Concepts
CAN-FD is similar to standard CAN and can be configured to fit

transparently into an existing CAN network
All of the advantages of CAN are available in CAN-FD

Message prioritization, guaranteed latency times, flexible

configuration, multi-master, multicast capability, error detection &
signaling, automatic retransmission on error
Tools will be modified to work with CAN-FD

Tool infrastructure remains similar to CAN minimizing learning curve
CANalyzer/CANoe upgrade in process (Service Pack) target 12/2012
Physical layer is similar

Additional consideration must be given to topology when using

higher data rates
Slide: 11
Basic Concepts
Summary:
CAN-FD is superset of CAN that:
Maintains CAN arbitration scheme
Maintains ACK scheme
Has mode that conforms with CAN 2.0 and ISO11898-1
And adds:
Higher data bit rates
Larger data fields (up to 64 bytes)
Larger CRC polynomials to handle larger data fields
Maintains compatibility with physical layer of standard CAN

Automotive Diagnostics Development

The Evolution of Automotive Diagnostic Technology

Basic Concepts A Visit to the Doctor

Something is wrong with the car but what?

ECUs know their own health

ECUs can communicate this information

Isolate the problem

Make the fix

Repair (replace) failing part(s)

Is the problem gone?

Go back and repeat questions and tests

Clean bill of health?

But How Does it Know??

Self tests are executed in parallel to actual system operation

Faults are detected and logged internally

Internal test routines are available for single-shot execution

Functionality created to interface with off-board diagnostic tools

Why Do We Need It?

Today: Its not brain surgery, but its close.

Goals and Benefits

Verify function and performance of electrical & mechanical systems

Ensure components are fault free while meeting functional duties

Accurately identify specific failure modes

Vehicle delivered from assembly plant to dealer in working order

Vehicle serviced correctly and on time during first visit to dealer

Accurately identify smallest necessary fix

Proper operation of emissions control systems

Reduced operational and warranty costs

Applications and Users Engineering

ECU development (test implementation and functionality)

Vehicle integration (verify interaction with other ECUs)

Calibration (monitor/calibrate performance, hot/cold trips)

Testing (proving grounds, component and vehicle durability testing)

EMC testing (electro-magnetic compatibility with rest of vehicle & FCC)

Applications and Users Manufacturing

Flash programming (program ECU at supplier or on assembly line)

Configuration and calibration (configure ECU on assembly line)

Repair bay (identify failures and verify repairs)

Audit bay (verify quality and compliance)

Applications and Users Service

In-service emissions testing

Troubleshoot customer complaints

Identify failures and warrantee issues

Flash re-programming updates

Implementation Concept How Does It Work?

ECU communicates with offboard test device

Evolutionary History Point-to-Point Links

Proprietary point-to-point links (start in early 1980s)

Implied address tin cans on a string model

Simple UART-based line drivers

Simple send-a-byte/get-a-byte protocols

Everything was proprietary

Still hanging on in production

Evolutionary History Point-to-Point Links (continued)

Standardized point-to-point links (start in early 1990s)

Logically addressed telephone party-line model

Still UART-based line drivers

More powerful send-a-message/get-a-message protocols

Standardized regulations and tools began to appear

ISO-9141 (K-line) becomes global standard
