Predicting quality of brake fluid in motor vehicle braking system, by using mathematical calculation based on measurements from braking medium sensor

摘要

The method involves calculating a future braking medium quality, in particular a future brake fluid quality from a number of measurements from a braking medium sensor (1). The braking medium quality is determined using a mathematical calculation technique. Time and vehicle power are used in the calculation. The time when the braking medium should be changed is calculated from a predetermined maintenance interval.
