How to use Scania VCI 3 to troubleshoot via Electrical system

Under Electrical system, you can troubleshoot  in relation to the electrical system. SDP3 com- municates with all the vehicle control units at   the same time.

You can obtain a description of the electrical system with its related circuits and compo-

nents. You can read fault codes, read signals,    activate components and carry out tests, adjust- ments and calibrations.

Navigation for the Electrical system has the   same structure as the vehicle’s electrical sys- tem.

  1. Vehicle
  2. ECUsystem: Thevehicle has a number of electronic control systems. The system is    the control unit with its components and     circuits.
  3. Control unit: Information about the con-trol unit’s hardware is presented here.
  4. Server: Information aboutthe control

unit’s software is presented here, i.e. the     functions which are available in the control unit. Here you can carry out checks related to the control unit, carry out adjustments     and calibrations.

5  Component group: The circuits are

grouped under each component group

according to the main component in the cir- cuit.

6  Circuit: Here you can obtain informationin order to troubleshoot the vehicle’s elec- trical circuits.

 

A control unit that is not supported by Scania is indicated as Unknown in the tree structure.

 

The content under the different tabs varies,     depending on where you are in the navigation tree.

The table on the following page gives an indi-   cation of what sort of information the tabs con- tain on the different levels. The numbers in the  illustration refer to the numbers in the table.

 

Fault codes

You can read and delete fault codes here. You can see which fault codes are registered. You  can choose to view fault codes for the entire    vehicle or for each control unit.

The exclamation mark indicates that there are   fault codes. The exclamation mark is displayed all the way from the vehicle level down to the  circuit where the fault is located.

 

The fault codes are divided into active and

inactive ones. Active fault codes are fault

codes which have been registered and where   the fault persists. Inactive fault codes are fault codes which have been registered but where    the fault has then disappeared.

The fault codes are also divided into primary and secondary fault codes. A primary fault

code is an original fault code. A secondary

fault code means a fault code which has been   registered in a control unit because a primary   fault code has occurred in another control unit. Active and primary fault codes are always dis- played, and you can then choose whether you   also wish to view inactive and secondary fault  codes.

The default setting for the fault code time     stamp is local time. You can choose to show the time in UTC instead.

For certain industrial and marine engines, you can choose to display fault code area 2. All     fault codes ever registered are then displayed. The fault codes in fault code area 2 cannot be  deleted.

Background information

At More information, it is possible to read

saved background information from the vehicle for some fault codes. The information consists  of a number of values which can be useful dur- ing troubleshooting.

It is important to remember that the values are  not stored at exactly the same time as the fault  code is generated. The control unit carries out a number of diagnostic tests before deciding to   generate a fault code.

The values are stored immediately when a pos- sible fault is detected whereas the actual fault    code is generated later in many cases. There-    fore it may appear as if the displayed values do  not correspond with the time when the fault

code was generated.

Fault code monitoring

Here you can obtain help to check that a fault   really has been rectified so that the fault code   will not recur after you have rectified it. Fault   code monitoring is used for those fault codes    where the fault does not become active imme-  diately, but for which more complicated verifi- cation in the control unit is required before the  fault code is set.

 

Here you can obtain a continuous read-out of the fault code status. This should be done

when:

  •   itis necessaryfor certain conditions to be met in the vehicle so that the control unit  can test and verify the fault code.
  •   the faultcodeis filtered based on the num-  ber of cycles, which means that the control  unit does not set an active fault code until it has been tested 4 times with a negative

result.

  •   the faultcode hasa long validation period.

When you have selected a fault code which is monitored, the button is active. You can then  access and monitor that particular fault code.

If you have not selected any fault code, you can click Fault code monitoring and select from the monitored fault codes. This can be useful when the fault codes are deleted.

The conditions that apply to the way in which the control unit verifies the fault codes are

described in the relevant fault code text

 

Description

A more detailed description is shown here

based on where you are in the navigation tree.

There are descriptions for the System, Control unit and Server levels.

Checking a circuit

A circuit diagram for the circuit marked in the navigation tree is shown here. You can read     signals from the control unit and activate dif-   ferent functions and components in order to     check whether the circuit is working as

expected. Descriptions can be found in the same window.

If you place the mouse pointer on a cable har- ness in the circuit diagram, the cable marking is displayed.

If you place the mouse pointer on a connection pin, the cable terminal part number, relevant    hand crimping tool, dismantling tool and cable marking are displayed.

You can change the size of the circuit diagram with the + and – keys.

Right-clicking a component in the circuit dia- gram takes you directly to a user function in   the user function view.

 

If you click the symbol to the right of the read value, the value is presented in a diagram.

From the server level in the navigation tree,      you can carry out a number of checks linked to each server.

Activation

When you start up the activation window (1),   SDP3 takes control over the inputs and outputs of the control units concerned.

You choose what to activate by entering a

value or a status (2). When you click the button (3), the value is sent to the control unit. The     current status is displayed to the right of the     button.

 

 

The activation button works differently

depending on what is required for the particular activation being carried out. The following

options are available:

  •   Activation takes place when you clickthe button and to stop activationyou have to   click the button again.

Some activations have a time limit which     means that the activation ceases automati-   cally after a certain time. Then the button is also reset.

  • Spring-loaded button: you have to holddown the button during activation.

When activation is completed, the value is reset to its original value.

It is only when you exit and close the activa-  tion window that the control unit regains con- trol over the components concerned.

As a safety feature, activation can always be interrupted by pressing the space bar.

Location

Diagrams are displayed here, which indicate     where on the vehicle a particular electric com- ponent is located. If there are several location   diagrams for the components in the circuit, use the arrows below the diagram to move between the diagrams.

If you double-click a diagram, a new window   opens to display the diagram. This enables you to have the diagram open while working with   other activities in SDP3. The same applies to   other diagrams in the program.

 

Components

Here you find a more detailed description of    the components which are included in a circuit. Select between relevant components in the list by the diagrams.

If there are several component diagrams, use the arrow keys below the diagram to move    between the diagrams.

 

The connection of controllable components to  the control unit is displayed in the navigation   tree at system level. Place the mouse pointer on a cable harness to get information about which checks can be carried out on the circuit at the   Check tab.

If you press the right-hand mouse button, the text box disappears but the highlighting

remains so that you can see the connection.

Place the mouse pointer on a component and  press the right-hand mouse button to navigate directly to the particular user function, circuit check or to information about the component. This function works for most components.

Adjustment

At Adjustment, you can view the customer     parameters that can be changed and their cur- rent values.

The information is retrieved from the control unit and displays the stored value.

During adjustment any applied settings are

saved to the SOPS file so that they can be reset when renewing a spare part.

You should have checked the vehicle and recti- fied any fault codes before carrying out an

adjustment.

  1. To carry outanadjustment, press the Change button.
  2. Select a new value.

If you change the value, a red dot is dis-    played on the status field for the customer parameter. The symbol, a flake, displays   the value that was set at the factory.

  1. ThenpressExecute.

When you carry out the adjustment, the

changed customer parameters will be

marked with a green tick if the adjustment  was successful. If the adjustment failed, the red dot will remain for the changed cus-

tomer parameters.

 

 

Calibration

There is also an option to calibrate and reset the values in the vehicle control unit.

During calibration it is not possible to save the settings made so that they can be reused when  renewing a spare part.

  1. Highlight what you wish to calibrate andproceed by clicking the arrows.
  2. A wizard will now appear which will helpyou to carry out thecalibration.

 

 

Signal logging

A list of the servers for the vehicle is shown    here. The signals are found under the relevant server.

In this view, you can tick the signals you want to take a closer look at. The signals can be

recorded and saved in a file, which you then     can use for troubleshooting. You can record the values of the signals, save them in a file and     e.g. send them to Scania for troubleshooting.

  1. Listof servers.

Click a server to see its signals.

2 Listof signals.

This is where you can select the signals you want to record.

3 List of selected signals.

The read value is shown here once logging has started.

4 Buttons forrecording.

Here, you can start, stop and save the

recording. You can also flag particularly    interesting parts of the recording by press- ing the Time stamp button. Reading speed is shown in Hz.

5 Buttons to save the signal list and to openpreviously saved signallists.

Open and save signal list is used when you have selected a number of signals and know that you will log the signals again. When    you have saved the signals as a list and

open the list again, the variables are marked  and ready to be logged. A list is also availa- ble from Scania Helpdesk, containing

exactly what they want to log on the vehi- cle.
