  "textContent": "Technical solutions are described for a system and method for determining status of an electronic control unit (ECU) in a dual-ECU system. The method includes: determining, by a first ECU, a pin state of an communications terminal connected to a sensor; powering the sensor by a second ECU; and determining, by the first ECU, a status of the second ECU based on the pin state of the communications terminal. The first ECU may determine the second ECU as being nonresponsive via a communications interface, and the first ECU may determine the status of the second ECU in response to determining the second ECU being nonresponsive via the communications interface. The first ECU may determine the status second ECU as being one of powered-on and non-responsive, powered-on and functioning, or powered-off, based on the pin state of the communications terminal.",
