ABSTRACT:
A trouble checking apparatus for use with an automotive vehicle having sensors sensitive to a condition of the automotive vehicle for producing sensor signals indicative of parameters reflective of the sensed condition. The apparatus includes a control circuit responsive to the sensor signals for calculating a value corresponding to a setting of each of a plurality of means for controlling the automotive vehicle. A self-checking unit is connected to the control circuit for checking the sensor signals applied to the control circuit to provide a self-checking code indicative of a cause of automotive vehicle trouble when at least one of the sensor signals has an abnormal value. An external trouble checking unit is connected through a detachable connector to the self-checking unit for utilizing the sensor signals fed to the control circuit and the self-checking code to find a cause of automotive vehicle trouble.
