And so will the AMC Team.įeel free to call or stop by find out more on how we can help you get your car back to the condition you both deserve! Earning your trust, every time you turn the car…that’s what we do…every day…for the last 30 years.Ĭlick here see what our happy customers have to say about us and our service at AMC Customer Reviews.*Diagnosed DME as faulty by measuring voltage at the bit serial data (BSD) line with all components unplugged (waterpump, alternator, oil condition sensor, intelligent battery sensor). Your car, and your pocketbook will thank you. Out of our area (we cover Falmouth, Freeport to Camden), call and ask for a referral to one of our service network members. There are ethical shops out there, but judge by the reviews online, by meeting the service team, by asking friends. Just because someone uses the name “Specialist” does not mean that they really know, or care about your particular car. The sensor is very easily damaged by improper or rough handling during battery service, or by water leaks into the rear battery area (more common than you might think.) If you experience any warning messages, or have battery problem, please contact us to have this checked.

In the event of a deviation from the definedoff-load current curve, an entry will be made in the DME / DDE fault memory. When the engine is restarted, the DME / DDE reads off the off-load current curve. The measured data are entered in the IBS memory for monitoring the offload current. The IBS is programmed to “wake up” every 14 seconds so that it can update the measured values with new measurements. Off-load current measurement: When the vehicle is not in use, the IBS continuously monitors the data relevant to the battery indicators.

The software in the PC-board of the IBS calculates “State of Charge” and “State of Health” of the battery and sends the information to the DME via the Bit Serial Data link. For data transmission, the IBS is connected to the DME (Digital Engine Electronics) or DDE (Digital Diesel Electronics) via the BSD (bit-serial data interface). The power supply for the IBS is fed across a separate cable. The IBS is secured and connected to the negative terminal of the battery.

The IBS is a mechatronic component for monitoring the battery condition.
