1 Answers
Audi Q3 gateway connector is located behind the instrument computer. Function of the gateway: As the core control device of the automotive network system, the gateway is responsible for coordinating protocol conversion, data exchange, fault diagnosis, and other tasks between CAN bus networks and other data networks with different structures and characteristics. Systems connected by the gateway: The gateway connects different types of bus systems, such as CAN information, CAN diagnosis, CAN drive, instruments, comfort, etc. The engine CAN is generally high-speed, while the diagnosis and comfort CAN are low-speed. Some systems like multimedia may use Ethernet, MOST, or other bus systems. The gateway ensures the normal operation of these data exchanges, enabling different-speed data buses to work together through the gateway.
