Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a system including a battery cable and at least one vehicle controller is provided. The battery cable includes a detection shield positioned over an inner conductor. The at least one vehicle controller is programmed to: receive a first signal indicative of current or voltage of the detection shield of the battery cable and to compare the current or voltage to a predetermined value. The at least one vehicle controller is further programmed to generate an alert indicative of warning that the battery cable is exhibiting a failure prior to a short circuit condition occurring at the battery cable in the event the current or voltage is not equal to the predetermined value.

Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a class 7 or 8 vehicle is provided. A first controller is configured to control a vehicle operation and to detect one or more failures related to the vehicle operation. The first controller is configured to transmit first data indicative of the one or more failures. A vehicle interface controller is configured to receive the first data indicative of the one or more failures on the data communication bus and to receive a signal corresponding to at least one of vehicle speed or park brake status. The vehicle interface controller is further configured to retrieve at least one diagnostic screen and to display the at least one diagnostic screen after the signal indicates the at least one of the vehicle speed being equal to a predetermined vehicle speed or the park brake status indicating that a park brake is set in the vehicle.
