As confirmed by twenty years of professional experience, after the introduction of new solutions into production, service stations face serious diagnostic challenges. In many cases, the analysis of factory settings and actual parameters does not yield results. Specialist knowledge regarding possible operating states and diagnostic methods is then essential, enabling the analysis of oscilloscope waveforms of control and actuator signals and the relationships between them. Thus, this article aims to present selected innovative automotive solutions in the DRIVe and BlueMotion II concepts, as well as methods for their diagnosis.
Rising operating costs of conventional engine drives and the emission of pollutants lead to the search for technological solutions enabling the improvement of ecological and economic parameters of vehicle usage. The paper presents selected solutions entering mass production that have a significant impact on fuel consumption and the natural environment. Vehicles produced under the DRIVe and BlueMotion concepts are presented. The Start-Stop system and possible causes of operational unreadiness states are described.
Selected system components are described, taking into account specific criteria values.
As always, newly introduced solutions require appropriate technical facilities, both in the form of specialized technical infrastructure and qualified personnel who will achieve the appropriate level of competence. As mentioned above, the effectiveness of the proper process of prospective operation depends on many factors. (…)
