Vehicle and control method thereof
View Patent ↗A vehicle is provided to include a wiper, a wiper driver that is connected to the wiper and configured to provide a driving force for rotation of the wiper, and a multi-function switch that is configured to receive a user command to turn the wiper driver on or off. A controller is configured to adjust a position of the wiper to enter a parking state after a preset time when a local interconnect network (LIN) communication system enters a limp home mode and the rotation of the wiper is stopped by a signal for turning off the wiper driver.
1. A control method of vehicle, comprising:
entering, by a controller, a vehicle Local Interconnect Network (LIN) communication system into a limp home mode;
receiving, by the controller, a user command to turn rotation of a wiper of the vehicle on or off; and
adjusting, by the controller, a position of the wiper to enter a parking state after a preset time when the rotation of the wiper is stopped by a signal for turning off the rotation of the wiper.
2. The control method of claim 1 , further comprising:
measuring, by the controller, a waiting time after the rotation of the wiper is stopped; and
adjusting, by the controller, the position of the wiper to enter the parking state when the measured waiting time reaches the preset time.
3. The control method of claim 2 , further comprising:
operating, by the controller, the wiper to maintain rotation of the wiper when the waiting time does not reach the preset time.
4. The control method of claim 2 , further comprising:
initializing, by the controller, the measured waiting time when the waiting time does not reach the preset time and a signal for turning off the wiper rotation is not detected.
5. The control method of claim 2 , further comprising:
operating, by the controller, a wiper driver of the wiper not to provide a driving force to the wiper when the wiper is stopped in a parking state.
6. The control method of claim 2 , further comprising:
operating, by the controller, a wiper driver of the wiper not to provide a driving force to the wiper when the position of the wiper is stopped at a position equal to or less than a preset angle in the parking state.
7. The control method of claim 2 , wherein the preset time is set according to user input.
