Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Interference Suppression
All standard and optional electrical consumers in the vehicle are shielded.
This includes all sensors, actuators and all electrical motors in the vehicle, as well as controllers in control modules that could cause high-frequency interference.
To suppress interference, all electrical parts such as, e.g., condensers, coils, and diodes are integrated with the electrical components.
Interference suppression components are also built into the connection housings of electrical consumers.
The grounding cables that used to be employed for shielding purposes are no longer used because interference suppression is now done as near as possible to the source of the interference.
