The invention relates to a method for controlling the coupling of an alternator (12, 20) with the combustion engine (10, 22) of a vehicle, the alternator being intended to supply electrical current to at least one current-consuming item of apparatus (18, 32) and means (16, 26, 28) of storing electrical energy, the alternator and the engine generally being coupled and coupling being performed by a coupling/decoupling device (14, 34). According to the invention, the method consists in detecting situations known as "rest" situations for which there is no need for the alternator to run and, if at least one of the rest situations is detected, in decoupling the alternator (12, 20) from the combustion engine (10, 22) so as to reduce the energy losses caused by running the alternator. |
