Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a fuel injection system (1) for supplying a combustion engine of a vehicle with fuel, in which method the fuel is conveyed at high pressure with the aid of a high-pressure pump (2), fed to a high-pressure accumulator (3), and injected into a cylinder of the combustion engine with the aid of at least one injector connected to the high-pressure accumulator (3). In order to detect any damage to the drive of the high-pressure pump (3), according to the invention a) the pressure (P) in the high-pressure accumulator (3) is measured and, on the basis of the measured values, a pressure drop (?P) in the high-pressure accumulator (3) caused by an injection into a cylinder is determined, b) a maximum pressure gradient is determined during a pressure build-up phase following the injection, c) the determined pressure drop (?P) and the determined maximum pressure gradient are put into proportion.

Abstract: A utility vehicle trailer having a vehicle electrical distribution system. The vehicle electrical distribution system includes a control unit having a first voltage transformer device. The electrical energy for operating at least one consumer connected to the control unit in a first operating state of the control unit is provided via an energy supply connection, via which the vehicle electrical distribution system is connected, at least in the first operating state, to an electrical energy source of an electronic braking system of the utility vehicle trailer. Electrical energy for operating the at least consumer in a second operating state of the control unit is provided by an electrical energy store of the utility vehicle trailer. The first voltage transformer device is configured to decouple a first ground potential connected to the energy supply connection from a second ground potential connected to the electrical energy store of the utility vehicle trailer.

Abstract: An engine system is disclosed. The engine system may have an engine, an intake duct, and a valve disposed within the intake duct and movable between a flow-passing first position, and a flow-blocking second position. The engine system may also have an actuator configured to move the valve from the second position toward the first position, and a biasing element configured to move the valve from the first position toward the second position. The engine system may additionally have a sensor configured to sense an operating condition of the engine, and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive an input indicative engine activation, and to activate the actuator based on the input. The controller may also be configured to make a determination that the operating condition of the engine has deviated from a desired operating condition, and to deactivate the actuator based on the determination.
