  • Publication number: 20080177437
    Abstract: An on-board diagnostic system of a vehicle comprises a diagnostic component configured to detect a vehicle operating condition and to produce an error output when the vehicle operating condition is determined to be abnormal; and a rough road detector configured to determine an average level of roughness of a road surface based on signals from wheel speed sensors, to compare the roughness with a predetermined threshold, and to disable the error output of the diagnostic component or switch to an alternate calibration for the diagnostic component if the roughness level has exceeded the predetermined threshold.
