Publication number: 20230243125Abstract: The present invention relates to a control unit for a vehicle. The vehicle includes a wheel axle fluid circuit adapted to feed wheel axle fluid to one or more wheel axles of the vehicle. The vehicle further includes a propulsion assembly adapted to propel the vehicle. The control unit is adapted to, on the basis of at least the following: information indicative of the propulsion assembly being inactive, information indicative of an expected time range until an expected operation start time of the vehicle, and information associated with a temperature of the wheel axle fluid, determine whether or not a conditioning procedure, during which the temperature of the wheel axle fluid is increased as compared to a present temperature of the wheel axle fluid, should be initiated for the wheel axle fluid.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2021Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Mikael Petersson, Norbert Rosenpek, Erik Petersson
