A method for monitoring an electric steering device of a vehicle while the vehicle is driving includes generating a nominal movement direction signal that characterizes a current nominal movement direction of the vehicle and processing the nominal direction movement signal in at least one electronic control device, feeding surroundings data into the at least one electronic control device wherein the surroundings data is generated by a sensor device of the vehicle that scans surroundings of the vehicle touch free, wherein the surroundings data characterizes surroundings of the vehicle and is configured to be processed by a first driver assistance system, wherein the surroundings data facilitates detecting a current actual movement direction of the vehicle.

A valve-device (VD) for a vehicle-braking-system (VBS), and a VBS. A VD for a VBS, having first/second control-units (CU), which are electrically connectable to the VD, which includes a valve-unit (VU) with an actuator for actuating the VU, a valve housing (VH) for the VU, and an error protection module (EPM) outside the VH. The EPM includes first/second supply-ports (SP) for electrical attachment to the first/second CUs, first/second main-ports (MP) for electrical attachment to the first/second CUs, a first connection port (CP) electrically connected to the first/second SPs, for electrical connection to the actuator, a second CP electrically connected to the first/second MPs, for electrical connection to the actuator, first and second electric protective circuits (EPC). The first EPC is electrically connected between the first/second SPs, and the first CP. The second EPC is electrically connected between the second CP and the first/second MPs. An EPC includes an electrical fuse-device and/or a diode-element connected in series to the respective supply/main ports.

A measuring system for detecting a physical parameter, includes a measuring sensor for detecting the physical parameter, which sensor has a first, second and at least one third terminal. The measuring system also includes a first power supply unit for outputting electrical energy to the measuring sensor with a first voltage with respect to a first ground potential via the first and the second terminal, and a second power supply unit for outputting electrical energy to the measuring sensor with a second voltage with respect to a second ground potential via the third and the second terminal or a fourth terminal. The first ground potential can differ from the second ground potential at least temporarily. The first power supply unit includes an additional voltage source via which the second terminal is electrically connected to the first ground potential.
