Peter, Noting that the thread has originated from MIRA, some of the Environmental Effects which should have minimal EMC impact (over the periodic maintenance lifetime) on the Engine Management Systems, Braking and Air Bag Deployment Systems etc could be: Vibration and Shock, Climate, Temperature, Presence of 60/50Hz High HV Power Cabling and Traffic Management cabling under/over roads etc. There have been incidences of Brakes or other unintended functions deploying with a mind of their own at certain geographic locations and traffic lights! Immunity aspects mostly covered under the Automotive Directive. Arun Kaore EMC Engineer
