      1. How do I quickly reach my goal?

        How do I quickly reach my goal?First call up menu item 'Evaluation of CAN fault codes' in case of CAN timeout fault codes and communication errors.The resulting tests must be performed.Menu item 'Further CAN test options' should only be called up if the above-specified tests do not produce the desired result.Note:Menu item 'General test information' can be called up for an explanation of the different CAN fault types.

      2. General test information

        Notes on CAN fault codes:CAN timeout fault

        • A CAN timeout fault code is set due to the absence of a CAN input signal.The cause of this may be not only the transmitter control unit, but also the CAN networking.
        • For example:No CAN message was received from control unit A. Bus OFF fault

        • A Bus OFF fault code is set, when the control unit cannot send a certain amount of messages to the CAN bus or the messages are incomplete.The control unit then switches off for a short time from CAN bus.
        • For example:CAN controller: CAN bus OFF Functional CAN fault

        • A functional CAN fault code is set because of an implausible CAN input signal.The cause of this is not the CAN networking, but the transmitter control unit or its sensors.
        • For example:CAN signal 'A' from control unit B is implausible.
          Notes on CAN faults that cannot be read out as fault codes.Bus wake-up event

        • An event that wakes up the bus without reason is designated a bus wake-up event.
        • The cause of this is not the CAN networking, but the transmitter control unit or its sensors.
        • Further possible causes of fault:
        • Magnetic fields caused by nearby high-voltage installations, railroad installations or power plants.
        • Magnetic fields can radiate on to lines and control units in rare cases and cause undefined behavior in the control units.
        • The special tool 'Star Diagnosis CANtool' can be used to log bus wake-up events, bus keepawake events and other signals.
          Bus keepawake event

        • When a control unit keeps communication on the bus awake without reason, this is designated a bus keepawake event.
        • The cause of this is not the CAN networking, but the transmitter control unit or its sensors.
        • Further possible causes of fault:
        • Magnetic fields caused by nearby high-voltage installations, railroad installations or power plants.
        • Magnetic fields can radiate on to lines and control units in rare cases and cause undefined behavior in the control units.
        • The special tool 'Star Diagnosis CANtool' can be used to log bus wake-up events, bus keepawake events and other signals.

He said/She said: 2016 Mazda CX-3 CUV Review

By: Dan Heyman & Lacey Elliot When I was asked to take the 2016 Mazda CX-3 for a spin, I found myself surprisingly excited considering that this type of a car—small/compact crossover—isn’t usually my cup of tea; as a certified auto journalist, and thus, somewhat unbalanced, I’m a big station wagon and hatchback kind of guy. I’ve always felt they provided all the creature comforts of an SUV or CUV, while still providing an engaging ride. However, the CX-3 is a Mazda, and Mazda has to be respected for always finding a way to add that certain je ne sais quoi that makes a car fun to drive and behold, whether that has to do with some funky styling, a firm chassis or engaging powertrain. That’s what happens when you’re known for continually building one of the world’s most exciting, fun-to-drive and above all, affordable, sports cars on the market: the MX-5. Styling So, with that in mind, I sauntered up to our CX-3 tester, finished in brilliant Soul Red metallic paint, and took it in. T...

Product Review: MyZone® Heart Rate Monitor

Today I’m writing up my review of the MyZone® HR monitor! I’ve been using mine now since May and have tested over a range of activities, so now I really believe I can give y'all a fair and informative review. Now, let’s start with the basics. I have the MyZone® MZ-3 physical activity belt, which retails for £129.99 – which, for a heart rate monitor, is fairly pricey considering you can get something like a Wahoo TICKR belt for ~£65 . Purchasing through a MyZone® representative is generally the best way: these tend to be personal trainers or gyms affiliated with the brand. For example, where I live you can get a belt through Henley Fitness Space and save something like ~10% off the RRP. Comfort wise it took a bit of adjusting for me to get used to the belt, but once I found the right position (which for me was just underneath my sports bra) I actually barely noticed the belt was there – which surprised me considering how bulky the monitor is. I find that in this position it sits jus...

Product Review: Garmin Vivoactive 3

So. It’s now been a few months since I’ve had the Garmin Vivoactive 3 and I now think I’ve taken it for enough of a spin to make my full and honest opinion. In short, I very much enjoy the watch and it’s a great training tool but still certainly has its downfalls. The Garmin Vivoactive 3 is a multisport watch with built in wrist HRM, and as with all wrist based HRM that’s were it tends to fall flat. I use my watch primarily to track my rowing, however I’ve also tested it on runs, cycles, swims, ergs, indoor cycles and weights so I’ve tried it all (except golf…). I think the best way to break down my review is to split it into the sports, so I’ll start with the main one for me: rowing. Rowing On the erg I split between either using the ErgIQ app which I downloaded, or just the ‘indoor rowing’ application already on the watch. Out of these I find the ErgIQ gives me the best data, though the concept2 PM5 set up at Leander seems to be slightly temperamental with whether they’ll pick the wa...

Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG Reliability - 2018 Ratings

New AMG SUV is the first full-size SUV which has that two way of building combined. 2 separate 1/4 mile records were made by two separate RENNtech cars at Palm Beach International Raceway on Wednesday night. The C350 took everything up a notch, but again not a night and day experience, while the C63 is otherworldly, its power devastating, adhesion and correlating road manners unfathomable for such a solid, substantial four-door sedan. I took my girlfriend to an Italian restaurant in Austin, Texas that we had both wanted to try for a while. While the show car does not look anything like the current Impreza, equally Subaru insists the concept鈥檚 styling forms only a guide to the production WRX. The interior of this car has been designed to have an elegant yet sporty look that matches perfectly with the vehicle鈥檚 overall appeal. To get the power onto the road, the rear tires are wider than the front ones on a mid-engined car - usually about 30% wider. Also look for a return of the hybrid S...

We Rank The 5 Audi RS Cars Sold In The US From Worst To Best

Amazingly, only six RS cars have even been sold in the US. RS is to Audi as AMG is to Mercedes and M is to BMW. Even though BMW and Mercedes are quickly expanding their performance portfolios in the US, Audi has lagged behind in offering RS cars in North America. In fact, there was a time when Audi only sold one RS model at a time. This means that (excluding generational overlap) there have only been six different RS models on sale in the US. With only six cars to choose from, we decided to rank the five best RS cars that have ever been sold in the US from so-called "worst" to best. Coming it at number five (the lowest spot) is the RS5. We decided to put the B8 and B9 generation RS5 on this list because neither is our favorite RS car. The RS5 had a few issues. For instance, the engine was out passed the front axel line, which caused understeer. The first RS5 had a naturally aspirated 4.2-liter V8 , which sounded great, but the new car uses a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 which a...
