A method for predicting an impending climate control failure for a transport temperature control system (TCCS) is provided. The method includes a backend obtaining one or more operational parameters and/or one or more control parameters of transport temperature control systems including the TCCS. The method also includes obtaining warrantee data and/or service records for the transport temperature control systems. The method further includes training a machine learning model with the warrantee data and/or service records for the transport temperature control systems, and at least one of the operational parameters of the transport temperature control systems or the control parameters of the transport temperature control systems. Also the method includes deploying the trained machine learning model. The method further includes predicting the impending climate control failure for the TCCS based on the trained machine learning model, operational parameters of the TCCS, and/or control parameters of the TCCS.

System and method to detect symptoms of impending climate control failures of transport climate control systems

A method of providing a virtual door sensor for a transport unit is disclosed. The method includes monitoring operation of a transport climate control system for a climate controlled space to obtain transport climate control system operating data; transforming the transport climate control system operating data into door event model inputs; predicting a door event based on the obtained door event model inputs; and transmitting a notification according to the predicted door event.
