Braking component replacement system and method

摘要

A method of replacement of replaceable components of a vehicle braking system are described, along with methods of controlling such replacement by preventing the or permitting removal of replaceable components of a braking system, in response to comparison of codes associated with current and replacement parts of the braking system. A related braking system and controller are also disclosed. The methods and related products can be used for ensuring the replacement of braking components with correctly specified replacement parts.

主权项

1. A method of replacing a replaceable component of a braking system, the method comprising:
providing a first code to a controller connected to the braking system; causing the controller to:
compare the first code with a second code, the second code being associated with the replaceable component of the braking system;wherein the controller activates a replacement actuator of the braking system to permit replacement of the replaceable component from the braking system when the first code is determined by the controller to be correctly associated with the second code; and replacing the replaceable component with a replacement component.
