The invention relates to the technical field of device detection, and in particular provides a status detection method and device for a vehicle light signaling control device, and a vehicle, so as solve a technical problem of how to accurately and reliably detect an operating status of a vehicle light signaling control device. For this purpose, according to the method of an embodiment of the invention, a first resistance jump sequence of a currently detected position resistance may be obtained according to historical position resistance data and the currently detected position resistance; and then it is determined whether the vehicle light signaling control device has malfunctioned, according to a comparison result of the first resistance jump sequence and a preset second resistance jump sequence. By means of the foregoing steps, when a jump sequence of the position resistance is consistent with a normal resistance jump sequence, it may be determined that an actual position of a turn position shifting module is a position corresponding to this position resistance, which overcomes a defect of false position determination in the prior art caused by the inconsistency between a position corresponding to a resistance value detection result and an actual position of a light control lever.

Auxiliary lighting control for vehicles and trailers
10946790 · 2021-03-16 · ·

A control device for a first lighting load on a vehicle or trailer features an input connected to a lighting circuit through which a different second lighting load is operated, thus placing the controller in parallel relation with the lighting circuit, and a power output connected to the first lighting load on the vehicle or trailer. The controller is configured to detect from the input, a signal change sequence in the lighting circuit that comprises an initial high-to-low signal downstep, and a subsequent low-to-high signal upstep completed within a limited time window triggered by the initial high-to-low signal downstep. In response to detection of this signal change sequence, the controller energizes the first lighting load. If the second lighting load is the vehicle headlights, for example, a user can turn on the first lighting load by momentarily flipping the headlight switch off, and then quickly back on again.

Control of vehicle headlights based on weather conditions

Method and apparatus are disclosed for control of vehicle headlights based on weather conditions. An example vehicle includes headlamps including low-beam lamps and high-beam lamps. The example vehicle also includes a light sensor, a camera, and a controller. The controller is to set the low-beam lamps in active mode when the light sensor detects low ambient light, monitor for precipitation in the low ambient light via the camera, identify an angle-of-incidence (AOI) between the precipitation and light emitted by the headlamps, and control the high-beam lamps based on the AOI.
