Intermittent failure diagnostic system and electric power steering apparatus provided with the same

摘要

An intermittent failure diagnostic system that, in addition to a failure detection of a conventional failure threshold, appropriately sets an intermittent diagnostic threshold at which a probability of false-positive detection of the intermittent failure is equal to a probability of false-positive detection of the conventional failure, more accurately detects the intermittent failure, suppresses an unprepared system down and improves the reliability, may be used with an electric power steering apparatus.
