An electronics unit and a plug-in junction box for plug-in connection of a plug-in connector integrated therein in the plug-in direction (S) into a plug-compatible socket of an electronics housing of an electronics unit of an electric motor. The junction box has a housing with a pot-like accommodation region delimited by housing walls for accommodating a contact carrier of the plug-in connector. A plurality of hollow-cylindrical screw bushings extending in the plug-in direction (S) are provided in the accommodation region. At a plurality of positions corresponding to those positions of the screw bushings, the contact carrier has externally located guide elements at which the contact carrier can be guided into its final assembly position, and in the final assembly position, the respective guide elements at least partially engage around the cylindrical screw bushings.

A fan includes a sealed electronics housing, in which a printed circuit board having electronic components is arranged. The electronics housing is divided into an upper region and a lower region. A cooling wheel which is arranged in the lower region is axially adjacent to the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board has at least one central opening and a plurality of peripheral-edge openings or gaps in order to bring the upper region into fluid communication with the lower region. Air is drawn out of the upper region into the lower region by the cooling wheel via the at least one central opening and, via the plurality of peripheral-edge openings or gaps. The air is fed back into the upper region. An air circuit having at least one air flow develops along a surface of the printed circuit board on which the electronic components are arranged.
