摘要:In some embodiments, a vehicle includes a temperature monitoring controller.
The temperature monitoring controller is a processor, control module, or other suitablehardware that is configured to receive temperature sensor values from an engine controlmodule (ECM) when an ignition bus is in a powered on state, and to decide when theengine should be automatically started in order to maintain a temperature above a lowtemperature threshold. The temperature monitoring controller periodically causes anignition bus of the vehicle to be placed in the powered on state when the engine is shutdown in order to collect temperature sensor values. The temperature monitoringcontroller determines whether to automatically start the engine, and if not, determineshow long to wait before collecting temperature sensor values again based on a rate ofchange of the temperature sensor values.
