Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for waking up a powertrain control module of an engine-driven vehicle during engine soak to perform an offset test of an exhaust NOx sensor. In one example, a method includes determining a duration to delay waking up the powertrain control module based on exhaust temperature at vehicle-off, waking up the powertrain control module after the duration has expired, and then initiating heating of the NOx sensor. After the NOx sensor lights off, heating continues for an additional duration before offset testing of the NOx sensor is performed.

Claim (Index 16):
The system of  claim 14 , wherein the instructions for initiating the NOx sensor offset test comprise instructions for selecting a NOx sensor output monitoring duration, sampling NOx sensor output throughout the monitoring duration, and calculating an average of the sampled NOx sensor outputs after the monitoring duration.
