What does BCU failure mean?
1 Answers
BCU refers to the mainboard failure in the vehicle's battery management system. BCU is Baidu's dedicated computing platform for autonomous driving, featuring two fundamental capabilities—information security and cloud updates—along with three core AI modules: high-precision positioning, environmental perception, and planning decision-making. The solution is as follows: Fault diagnosis: Based on the symptoms, if the engine fails to start after stalling, it is generally caused by a fuel system or ignition system malfunction. Turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position and check the fuel pressure at 370 kPa, which is normal. Ignition system inspection: Inspect the engine ignition system and observe no high-voltage spark, indicating an ignition system fault. Turn the ignition switch: First, turn the ignition switch to ON and use a test light to check terminal No. 1 of the ignition coil connector. If the test light does not illuminate, it indicates a power supply circuit fault in the ignition system. Test the ignition coil: Check that the No. 2 (15A) fuse under the instrument fuse box is intact. Remove the ignition coil for testing and find a faulty ignition coil relay. Replace the sensor: Replace the CKP sensor, clear the fault code using HDS, and reset the ECM/PCM. The engine starts normally, and the fault is resolved.
