PQ steering timeout after 6 minutes #41

Closed jyoung8607 closed 2 years ago

jyoung8607 commented 4 years ago

I'm reliably informed that PQ steering racks are only willing to steer for 6 minutes, then fault out. The exact recovery steps aren't known yet, but it's a non-permanent fault. It seems we can get control back after a couple seconds of the driver Doing Something.

Waiting for data to look at this offline now that we've fixed some other bugs. We have a couple things we can try to force a reset, much like we do for MQB today (it has the same timer). If all else fails, we can force an OP DM steering wheel touch every 5 minutes.

Timebomb can be bypassed in 1.05 seconds reliably.
