Abstract

See full text

A system for monitoring the condition of a lubricant in a driveline component monitors the temperature of the lubricant and compares it to an ambient temperature. A temperature differential is stored as a function of time, and if that differential temperature increases beyond a predetermined amount, then an indication is made that lubricant maintenance may be in order. To further refine this system, the compared temperature differentials may be selected under similar load conditions.
