An electronic brake system for a braking system of a utility vehicle having a brake encoder with at least one sensor for detecting positions of a brake pedal that is actuated by the driver of the utility vehicle and at least one valve that is mechanically actuated via the brake pedal, and which, as a result of the mechanical actuation, is moved from a pressure reduction position into at least one pressure-maintaining or pressure increase position, in which the valve admits at least one fluid flow for the actuation of at least one operating brake of the braking system, wherein the valve is assigned at least one control element that is different from the brake pedal, by which the valve is moved.

An automotive power supply device includes first and second batteries, first and second load groups, a plurality of fuses interposed between the first and second batteries and the first and second load groups, and instantaneous interruption prevention devices. First and second redundant system loads that complement operation of each other are allocated to the first and second load groups. The instantaneous interruption prevention devices are connected to the first and second load groups, and prevent an instantaneous interruption of electric power supplied to at least any of the first and second load groups when one or more fuses are blown.

There are provided a system and a method for controlling power of a high speed vehicle. The system for controlling power of a vehicle includes: a latch relay configured to supply power to a vehicle load or to block power to the vehicle; a communication part configured to output a driving signal when a wakeup signal is received; a pulse generator configured to output a one shot pulse that turns on the latch relay when the driving signal is applied; and a processor configured to control a driving of the latch relay turned on by the one shot pulse when being initialized.

A portable device receives power from a battery of a vehicle when connected to the vehicle via a connector in the vehicle. The portable device determines whether an engine of the vehicle is running and a speed of the vehicle if the engine is running. The portable device clears fault codes of ECUs if the engine is not running. The portable device resets parameters of an ECU controlling an exhaust system of the vehicle to default values if the portable device remains connected to the vehicle for a predetermined time period after sending clearing the fault codes. If the engine is running and that the speed of the vehicle is zero, the portable device initiates a forced regeneration of a diesel particulate filter of the exhaust system.
