SWIFT 10 ATV Sensors 126 Troubleshooting
A two-time-per-revolution
of tire signal is showing up
when the vehicle is driving
straight on a flat surface.
Gain settings: Verify that the TI electronics
calibration file gain settings have not been
modified. Using the T2IXFER program, upload
the current TI settings and compare them to the
original gain setting on the disk provided.
Bridge Failure: If a single bridge is failing due
to overstress, overload induced crack, and so on,
the results could appear as this type of output.
To verify that this is the cause, use the
TI2XFER program to upload the current TI
settings after a zeroing procedure. Load the
transducer for several cycles, without inducing
heat (drive vehicle for a few cycles but do not
use excessive brake heating). Rezero the TI
electronics. Use TI2XFER to upload the new
zero values. Compare them to the previously
recorded zero values. These values should not
change by more than 0.01 to 0.03 for two zeroes
done at the same conditions, on the same
transducer. If the changes are much larger,
remove the transducer from vehicle and contact
MTS.
