  • Method and control device for controlling a vehicle device
    Patent number: 11885254
    Abstract: A method for controlling a vehicle device (10) configured to cool of a vehicle unit (20) includes reading in temperature information which is functionally related to an operation of the vehicle unit (20) and determining a temperature gradient. The method also includes checking whether the information read in exceeds a threshold value for the information read in, checking whether the temperature gradient determined exceeds a threshold value, and emitting a signal for the control of the vehicle device (10) as a function of check results of the checking steps, in order to bring about the cooling of the vehicle unit (20) by the vehicle device (10). In addition, a control unit (100) for carrying out the method and a vehicle (200) with a control unit (100) of that type.
