ECM Testing in Wisconsin


Bill Messerschmidt conducted Electronic Control Module (ECM) testing with the Wisconsin State Patrol in Appleton, Wisconsin, at Fox Valley Technical College on May 4 - 5. The testing involved using heavy vehicles to simulate real-life events, such as a loss of power, to better understand how ECMs record data during accidents.

MSC would like to thank Trooper Tim Austin and Sergeant Duane Meyers and the rest of the Wisconsin State Patrol Technical Reconstruction Unit; Ben Smith of ASI Investigations; Rob Behnke and the staff of Fox Valley Technical College; Chris Voeglie of the NTSB; Vericom Computers; and Lamers Bus Service for their help in facilitating this testing event.
