A method for operating a brake system, which comprises hydraulically actuatable wheel brakes with brake linings; a brake fluid reservoir; a master brake cylinder; a pressure supply device with a pressure piston that can be moved into a pressure chamber; an integrated parking brake, wherein, in a normal operating mode, brake pressure is actively built up in the wheel brakes by means of the pressure supply device, and wherein, in a parking operating mode, the integrated applies the brake linings of at least two wheel brakes, and wherein, when the integrated parking brake is released, the application of the linings is withdrawn again, wherein after the integrated parking brake has been released, the brake fluid volume displaced by the integrated parking brake is taken into consideration for the subsequent operation in the normal operating mode.

A method for reducing pressure peaks in hydraulic brake systems comprises an electrically operated pressurization device. A drive resistance variable of the pressurization device is measured, for example the torque. A speed variable of the pressurization device is measured. A quotient of the drive resistance variable and the speed variable is calculated. The quotient is monitored for the occurrence of a jump and, in the case of a determined jump, a speed requirement of the pressurization device is reduced and/or a hydraulic valve for pressure dissipation is actuated.

A method for operating a pressure control device in a vehicle, in particular in a motor vehicle, wherein current is supplied by an energy source of the vehicle for operating the pressure control device, as a result of which the pressure control device carries out at least one pressure control function, for which at least two actuators of the pressure control device are actuated, wherein at least one current required at maximum for actuating the actuator is determined for each actuator and current budget management for actuating the actuators and/or for carrying out the pressure control functions is performed by the determined currents required at maximum. In addition, the invention relates to a pressure control device for carrying out the method.
