Provided are an acceleration suppression device for a vehicle and an acceleration suppression method for a vehicle that can reduce a reduction in drivability due to the operation of an acceleration suppression control while crossing an intersection. If it ...

A controller for controlling a power source in response to a throttle input, the throttle input representing the status of a throttle control in a range from a minimum state to a maximum state, the controller being configured to control the power source in...

The method involves determining presence of a defect on level of an accelerator pedal (20) by activation of brake pedals (30). The defect is recorded. The defect is corrected. Detection conditions of the defect are verified by comparing values of engine sp...

A method, identification tag reader and computer program product for communication with an identification tag are disclosed. To communicate with the tag, identification data may be retrieved from an identification tag. A guest identification, compliant wit...

One of two sensors is detected faulty by analyzing variation patterns outputted by the two sensors even when the outputs of two sensors remain within their respective normal output ranges. A control input is determined using the output of the fault-free se...

Although an accelerator interlocking member (26) and an acceleration function follow-up member (28) magnetically coupled with each other when an automobile stops or travels at a car speed less than a predetermined speed are released from the magnetic coupl...

One of the two accelerator sensors 165a and 165b is detected faulty by analyzing variation patterns outputted by the two sensors even when the outputs of two sensors remain within their respective normal output ranges. An accelerator control input is deter...
