System and method for simulating an input to a telematics system

摘要

A system and method for simulating a component in a telematics system is described. The system and method includes a simulating a component and a establishing a communication link between the simulated component and a corresponding carlet in a telematics control unit (TCU). The simulated component can also be adjusted to a desired condition and the TCU can be monitored for a responsive output.
