Abstract: Systems and apparatuses include one or more processing circuits comprising one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors, the one or more memory devices configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: receive a target temperature and store the target temperature on the one or more memory devices, output the target temperature, receive temperature information from a sensor positioned downstream of an engine and upstream of a aftertreatment system catalyst, generate a current temperature based on the temperature information, output the current temperature, compare the current temperature to the target temperature, output a loading instruction based on the comparison of the current temperature and the target temperature, and generate a graphical user interface including the output target temperature, the output current temperature, and the output loading instruction.

Abstract: A manifold assembly for a camera wash system of an autonomous vehicle is disclosed. The manifold assembly includes a fluid inlet; a plurality of fluid injectors, each fluid injector configured to switch between an open state in which fluid passes through the fluid injector and a closed state in which fluid does not pass through the fluid injector; a block member configured to hold the fluid injectors in a fixed position; and a rail member including a fluid passage in fluid communication between the fluid inlet and each fluid injector for providing a cleaning fluid to each of the fluid injectors.

Abstract: A fluid reservoir for a vehicle comprises a first reservoir portion and a second reservoir portion, wherein the first and the second reservoir portions define a reservoir to retain fluid for a washer system. The first reservoir portion and the second reservoir portion are secured together using infrared welding.

Abstract: A sensor assembly, having an inner spring, a middle spring circumscribing the inner spring, and an outer spring circumscribing the middle spring. Each of the springs are connected to a first circuit board and a second circuit board. An axis extends through the inner spring, the middle spring, and the outer spring such that the springs are rotatable about the axis, and the inner spring, middle spring, and outer spring provide electrical communication between the first circuit board and the second circuit board regardless of the orientation of the inner spring, middle spring, and outer spring about the axis. The first circuit board is a sensor board, and the second circuit board is a printed circuit board (PCB), but it is within the scope of the invention that different types of circuit boards may be used in various combinations.

Abstract: A method of cleaning a radar sensor for a vehicle comprises monitoring a signal output from an external radar sensor for the vehicle with an electronic control unit and comparing the signal output to a signal quality threshold. Debris is cleaned from a protective screen located between the sensor and the external environment of the vehicle when the signal output is below the quality threshold. Cleaning the debris from the protective screen is performed by one of heating the protective screen by activating a heating element located proximate to the protective screen or spraying a fluid from a nozzle located in a bezel surrounding the protective screen and proximate to the protective screen over the exterior surface of the screen.

Abstract: A washer system includes a washer pump constructed and arranged to pump washer fluid from a reservoir to an outlet of the pump. The pump includes an inlet port extending from a bottom thereof. The pump also includes surface features associated with the bottom thereof. Grommet structure has first and second ends and a fluid passage between the ends. The inlet port is received in the fluid passage. The grommet structure has surface features that mate with the surface features of the pump so as to prevent the pump from rotating with respect to the grommet structure.

Abstract: A fluid storage system for a vehicle includes a splash shield formed to at least partially define a wheel cavity of the vehicle. At least one reservoir structure is integral with the splash shield. The at least one reservoir structure includes an interior cavity defining a volume for storing fluid. The splash shield and reservoir structure can be molded integrally or can be separate parts that are welded or otherwise coupled together.

Abstract: A fob for a remote keyless entry system includes a printed circuit board (PCB) located within a housing. The PCB includes a surface on which circuitry is printed and components are mounted. A coil is mounted to the surface and provides an antenna for the fob. The coil includes a frame spaced apart from the PCB to provide room for other components on the PCB. Coil mounts extend from the frame and are received by the PCB at coil mount locations. The coil mounts contact the surface of the PCB to form an electrical connection.
