Abstract
A vehicle control system is provided that includes a storage module including a capacitor module configured to store electrical energy and a storage controller operatively connected to the capacitor module. The storage controller is configured to provide the capacitor module electrical energy when the stored electrical energy of the capacitor module is less than a stored electrical energy threshold. The vehicle control system also includes a computer operatively connected to the storage controller, wherein the computer is configured to determine when a supplied voltage is less than a voltage threshold and initiate a shift-by-wire actuator when the supplied voltage is less than voltage threshold using the stored electrical energy in the capacitor module to actuate the shift-by-wire actuator.
