carries out the credibility detection for the output signal of sensor, the drive signal of actuator and the
internal signal (such as λ closed-loop control, coolant temperature, idling speed control and battery
voltage control etc.). Once a trouble is found in some link or a signal value is incredible, the electronic
control module immediately sets the trouble information record in RAM memory. Trouble information
