1. A vehicle comprising:
- a traction motor;
a receiving coil configured to receive a power wirelessly; and
a controller configured to execute a diagnostic test of a rotational position sensor of the traction motor, wherein when the receiving coil is positioned with respect to a supplying coil in ground equipment, the controller is configured to adjust a diagnostic strictness of the diagnostic test to be less strict so that a number of errors produced when the receiving coil is positioned with respect to the supplying coil in the ground equipment becomes fewer than a number of errors produced when the receiving coil is not positioned with respect to the supplying coil in the ground equipment.

Abstract
A vehicle includes: a traction motor; a diagnostic module; a receiving coil; and a controller. The diagnostic module executes a diagnostic test of a rotational position sensor of the traction motor. The receiving coil receives a power wirelessly. The controller switches the diagnostic module to a state that is less likely to determine an error than normal when the receiving coil is positioned with respect to a supplying coil in a ground equipment.

15. A vehicle comprising:
-
a traction motor; a receiving coil configured to receive a power wirelessly; and circuitry configured to execute a diagnostic test of a rotational position sensor of the traction motor, and when the receiving coil is positioned with respect to a supplying coil in ground equipment, adjust a diagnostic strictness of the diagnostic test to be less strict so that a number of errors produced when the receiving coil is positioned with respect to the supplying coil in the ground equipment becomes fewer than a number of errors produced when the receiving coil is not positioned with respect to the supplying coil in the ground equipment.
