Vehicle control system
A SBW-ECU prohibits driving of an electric motor by turning off power supply to the motor by a drive prohibition device, when a diagnosis part of a by-wire control circuit determines that a shift-by-wire system is abnormal or a monitor circuit determines that the by-wire control circuit is abnormal. In this case, the motor is stopped from rotating by execution of power supply phase fixation processing, by which a power supply phase of the motor is fixed without switchover, when the motor is driven to rotate at the time of determination of abnormality of the shift-by-wire system. Then the prohibition device prohibits driving of the motor by stopping the power supply to the motor.
1. A vehicle control system comprising:
a by-wire system having a by-wire control circuit, which controls a motor provided as a drive source of a vehicle-mounted device; and
an abnormal-time drive prohibition part for prohibiting driving of the motor when the by-wire system is determined to be abnormal by monitoring the by-wire system,
wherein the abnormal-time prohibition part stops power supply to the motor after executing power supply phase fixation processing without switchover of power supply phase of the motor, when the motor is in rotation at the time of determination of the abnormality of the by-wire system.
2. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the abnormal-time drive prohibition part variably sets a power supply pattern of the power supply phase fixation processing in accordance with a rotation speed of the motor.
3. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the abnormal-time drive prohibition part variably sets an execution period of the power supply phase fixation processing in accordance with a rotation speed of the motor.
4. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the abnormal-time drive prohibition part includes a monitor circuit, which is provided as a separate circuit from the by-wire control circuit to monitor whether the by-wire control circuit is operating normally.
5. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a drive determination part, which prohibits driving of the motor when the driving of the motor is not determined as being permitted by determining whether the driving of the motor is permitted or prohibited.
6. The vehicle control system according to claim 5 , wherein:
the drive determination part determines whether the driving of the motor is permitted or prohibited based on plural signals indicating states of the vehicle.
7. The vehicle control system according to claim 5 , wherein:
the drive determination part is provided in the by-wire control circuit.
8. The vehicle control system according to claim 5 , wherein:
the drive determination part is provided in a circuit, which is separate from the by-wire control circuit.
9. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the abnormal-time drive prohibition part executes the power supply phase fixation processing, only when switching elements, which switches over the power supply phases of the motor, are normal.
10. The vehicle control system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the abnormal-time drive prohibition part executes the power supply phase fixation processing, only when the motor is in rotation at the time of determination of abnormality of the by-wire system.
