This module uses fictional percentages and simplified energy/brake-blending relationships. It does not provide OEM regenerative-torque limits, battery charge-acceptance thresholds, high-voltage test procedures, brake-pressure specifications or authorization to work on energized high-voltage systems. Use exact service information, high-voltage safety procedures and approved scan-tool/test methods.
Regeneration changes the energy path, not the requirement for safe braking
13.6 added electronically commanded braking and fallback. This module adds energy recovery and friction blending. Next planned module: 13.8 · Brake Diagnosis, Service & Verification.
Trace request, electrical recovery, battery acceptance and friction contribution
Separate requested deceleration from regen capability and friction fallback
All values are fictional teaching percentages. Real vehicles use architecture-specific torque, power, SOC, thermal and slip limits.
*Fictional normalized values. They are not torque, pressure, SOC or safety specifications.
Build evidence across request, regen command, battery acceptance and friction blending
Ordered regenerative-brake diagnostic workflow
Complete the sequence in order.
Evidence
Best supported conclusion / next step
10-question knowledge check
Online regen reasoning is not high-voltage or brake-service competency
Use approved trainers/vehicles, exact service information and high-voltage safety controls. Observe architecture identification, data interpretation, friction-brake inspection and final verification.
