Abstract

A diagnostic device for a sensor for measuring the position of a motor-vehicle drive shaft. The sensor includes a first wired communication link and a second wired communication link, via which wired communication links the sensor sends the signal, and being characterized by an average reference voltage. The diagnostic device for a sensor being intended to be electrically connected between the first wired communication link and the second wired communication link and being configured to: a) receive a first voltage value corresponding to the average voltage in the first wired communication link and a second voltage value corresponding to the average voltage in the second wired communication link; b) detect a short circuit on the first wired communication link; or c) detect a short circuit on the second wired communication link.
