Vehicles and related systems and methods are provided for round-robin air purging of disengaged clutches. One method involves obtaining a plurality of weighting factors associated with respective ones of a plurality of clutches of a vehicle transmission, obtaining an exhaustion time associated with each respective clutch, determining a respective priority metric associated with the each respective clutch based at least in part on the exhaustion time associated with the respective clutch and the respective weighting factor associated with the respective clutch, determining a highest priority clutch of the plurality of clutches based at least in part on the respective priority metrics associated with the respective clutches of the plurality of clutches, and operating one or more valves in accordance with a pulse command to pulse the highest priority clutch with a commanded pressure for a commanded period of time.

A hydraulic control device that includes a primary pressure control valve that has a first valve element and that regulates the primary pressure by varying a position of the first valve element in accordance with operation of a first electromagnetic actuator; a secondary pressure control valve that has a second valve element and that regulates the secondary pressure by varying a position of the second valve element in accordance with operation of a second electromagnetic actuator; and a fail-safe valve that varies the position of the first valve element such that the primary pressure is reduced when the first electromagnetic actuator and the second electromagnetic actuator become inoperable.

The motor vehicle is configured to recognize a shift position in response to the user's shift operation of a shift lever and to control a driving system, based on the shift position and the user's accelerator operation, brake operation and steering operation. On occurrence of a predetermined abnormality that causes a failure in recognizing the shift position, the motor vehicle sets an abnormality-time shift position based on vehicle peripheral information and notifies the abnormality-time shift position. When a moving direction is set by a moving direction setting unit that is provided separately from the shift lever and that allows the user to set the moving direction, the motor vehicle resets the abnormality-time shift position based on the moving direction, and controls the driving system, based on the abnormality-time shift position, the brake operation and the steering operation.

A position sensor including: a power supply terminal to which a power supply voltage is applied; a ground terminal to which a ground voltage is applied; an output terminal that outputs a signal; a detection portion that operates based on the power supply voltage and the ground voltage, and detects a position of a detection target by a magnetic resistance element whose resistance value changes according to a movement of the detection target; and a signal processing portion that operates based on the power supply voltage and the ground voltage, and processes a signal input from the detection portion.

In some implementations, a controller may obtain, during an event, pressure data regarding an amount of pressure of fluid associated with a component of the machine. The controller may obtain, during the event, flow data regarding a flow of the fluid associated with the component of the machine. The controller may determine, based on the pressure data and the flow data, an amount of wear of a track of the machine. The controller may perform an action based on the amount of wear of the track of the machine.

A vehicle control device is applied to a vehicle including at least a shift control system configured to switch a shift range. The vehicle control device is configured to control the vehicle to perform autonomous driving travel without depending on an operation of a driver in at least one driving operation. The vehicle control device includes a controller. The controller is configured to determine the propriety of travel by the autonomous driving travel according to a type of abnormality that occurs in the shift control system. The controller is configured to perform travel control of the vehicle according to the propriety of the travel by the autonomous driving travel.

Methods and systems are provided for controlling and diagnosing a mechanical vehicle component. In one example, a method may include determining a vehicle speed and a plurality of clutch position settings at a diagnostic controller, and identifying unauthorized conditions based on these determinations. Further, the diagnostic controller may trigger an active fault state of the mechanical vehicle component in order to avoid unauthorized conditions that may lead to unwanted or unanticipated changes in vehicle motion.
