Vehicle Electronical Control Unit, VECU
1.0 Vehicle Electronical Control Unit, VECU

1.1 General, control unit
The MID number for the vehicle (VECU) is 144. The main function of the VECU is to gather data from the different driver controls inside the bus, and send them on to the other control units in the system, mainly to the EECU. VECU also has some built-in functions, that used to be handled by the combination relay. The vehicle control unit is connected to both the control link (SAE J1939) and the information link (SAE J1587). VECU is often installed beneath the dashboard.

1.2 VECU functions

These are the VECU functions. Accelerator pedal The signals from the accelerator pedal are sent to VECU, and then further on to the EECU via the control link. If there is an open circuit in the control link, the signals from the accelerator pedal will be sent on the information link to the EECU. The EECU control unit has an emergency function, that makes it possible for the bus to be driven with reduced speed, in case of an open circuit in both data links. In that case it is the idle valve switch that handles the acceleration. The idle switch is connected to the EECU with a separate connection, and it will indicate if the accelerator pedal is in idle position or driving position. Cruise control and Redundant brake switch The cruise control is operated by a four function control switch located at the lever on the left side of the steering wheel. When braking the redundant brake switch is set and cruise control is inhibited. Vehicle speed The vehicle speed signal is sent from a sensor on the gearbox. Depending on the variant of the bus, such as if the bus has a tachograph or a speedometer, the transfer and the processing of the signal differs. Tachograph The signal is transferred via a separate connection that is sealed to the tachograph. The tachograph then sends a frequency signal to the VECU wich forwards the message to both data links. Speedometer (without tachograph)
70312913 11/7/2000
The supply voltage for the sensor on the gearbox comes from the instrument cluster. The signal (vehicle speed) is sent from the sensor via a separate connection to the VECU wich forwards the message to both data links. The speedometer then receives the signal from the information link. Increased idling speed This function can be controlled by VECU. Key switch/start button VECU controls the function of the key switch/start button for the EECU, and the preheating function. Engine and exhaust brake VECU controls the exhaust brake and the engine brake. Windshield wiper VECU controls the interval- and wiper function during wash of the windshield. Hand retarder Auxiliary brake system, controlled by a five function control switch at a special lever. Foot retarder (and brake pedal control) Auxiliary brake system controlled by a potentionmeter built into the brake pedal. By setting the brake pedal control switch, the function is disabled. Engine torque limit 1 A digital input used to create an engine torque reduction message. Used in articulated applications. Engine torque limit 2 A digital input used to create an engine torque reduction message. Used in articulated applications. Engine speed limit A digital input used to create a message to the engine regarding speedlimit. Used in articulated applications to get idle speed in certain conditions.

2.0 Tests
2.1 General, test performance
The sequence for the tests is decided when the settings for each workstation is being performed. The sequence described in this manual is not predetermined, it is just a brief explanation of each test available in VISP. In the description of each test, the phrase instructions shown on the screen means that the operator receives instructions from the VISP-program on the computer screen.

2.2 Read faultcodes

VISP reads possible faultcodes and displays them on the screen. 2.2.1 Text for the operator The following text is shown on the screen: Read FMI, VECU Explanation: VISP reads the faultcodes that are set in the VECU.

Tests
2.3 Reset faultcodes

VISP resets the faultcodes that may occur in the control unit. This test is automatically performed by VISP, the operator does not have to do anything during the test. When the ECU resets error codes, it only resets them from the RAM-memory. If the error codes are to be reset permanently, the non-volatile memory must be reset. This will be done when the key switch is turned off. The reset will take a few seconds. Note! If the main power switch is turned off before the key switch, the error codes will still be in the non-volatile memory. Therefore the operator needs to turn off the keyswitch for a few seconds (after error codes have been reset) before the main power is turned off. 2.3.1 Text for the operator The following instruction is shown on the screen: Reset FMI, VECU Explanation: VISP resets the faultcodes from the VECU.

2.4 Test of key switch with or without preheating

In this test, VISP checks that the key switch is connected to the vehicle control unit. If the bus is equipped with preheating, the operator receives three instructions on the screen. The first is to turn the key switch to preheat position and hold it there. The second instruction asks the operator to turn the key to start position and hold it there. Finally the operator is asked to release the key and the test is done. If the bus is not equipped with preheating the first step, turn key to preheat, is left out. 2.4.1 Texts for the operator The following instructions are shown on the screen: Turn key to preheat & hold This text is shown only for buses with preheating function. Instruction: The operator shall turn the key switch to preheating position and hold it there. Turn key to start & hold Instruction: The operator shall turn the key switch to start position and hold it there. Release key Instruction: The operator shall release the key switch. 2.4.2 Texts shown if time-out has occurred The following texts are shown on the screen if time-out has occurred: Key switch preheat signal is low, VECUPA7 Explanation: The signal from connection PA7 (key switch at preheat position) is too low. Probable cause: An open circuit. Key switch start signal is low, VECUPA6 Explanation: The signal from connection PA6 (key switch at start position) is too low. Probable cause: An open circuit. Key switch start or preheat signal is high, VECUPA6, VECUPA7 Explanation: One of the signals from connection PA6 or PA7 (key switch preheat or start position) is too high. Probable cause: Defective switch.

2.5 Test of startbutton with preheat or without

In this test VISP checks that the startbutton and the preheating switch is connected to the vehicle control unit. If the bus is equipped with preheat, the operator receives three instructions on the screen. The first is to turn the feed switch to position C and hold it in place. The second instruction asks the operator to push the start button and hold it in place. Finally the operator is asked to release the button and the test is done. If the bus is not equipped with preheating the first step, turn key to preheat, is left out. 2.5.1 Texts for the operator The following instructions are shown on the screen: Activate preheat This text is shown only for buses with preheating function. Instruction: The operator shall turn the feed switch to position C. Push start button Instruction: The operator shall push the start button. Release start button Instruction: The operator shall release the start button. 2.5.2 Texts shown if time-out has occurred The following texts are shown on the screen if time-out has occurred: Preheat signal is low, VECUPA7 Explanation: The signal on connection PA7 (preheating signal) is low. Probable cause: A defective switch. Start signal is low, VECUPA6 Explanation: The signal on connection PA6 (start signal) is low. Probable cause: A defective switch. Preheat or startsignal is high, VECUPA6, VECUPA7 Explanation: The signal on connection PA6 or PA7 (preheat or startsignal) is high. Probable cause: A defective switch.

Probable cause: The battery is not giving a correct supply voltage or the control unit is defective. If there is something wrong with the control unit it may interpret the supply voltage as incorrect. Battery voltage is higher than 30 V, VECUPA13, VECUPA12 Explanation: The battery voltage is higher than 30 V which is the highest voltage limit. Probable cause: The battery is not giving a correct supply voltage or the control unit is defective.
