A trailer air supply and control module for a electronic brake system of a motor vehicle with a trailer interface, and a brake system of a motor vehicle with a trailer interface comprising the trailer air supply and control module, includes at least two electrical terminals configured to receive two independent but redundant electrical control input signals which comprise a signal for a preset brake control outlet pressure. At least one valve is configured to adjust a constant air pressure from an air pressure source to the preset brake outlet pressure. One pneumatic outlet terminal is configured to provide the preset brake supply outlet pressure to the pneumatic brake system of the trailer, and one pneumatic outlet terminal is configured to provide the preset brake control outlet pressure to the pneumatic brake system of the trailer. The air pressure source is arranged within the trailer air supply and control module.

Brake system for a motor vehicle and trailer air supply and control module

A system for controlling an electric vehicle is disclosed. The electric vehicle has a main power supply for propulsion of the vehicle and at least one brake power supply for at least one brake actuator. The system includes a propulsion control unit for controlling at least one propulsion actuator, and at least one brake control unit for controlling the at least one brake actuator. The propulsion control unit is further configured to control one or more propulsion actuators to perform a backup braking or a backup steering.

System and a method for controlling an electric vehicle

A steering system for a vehicle includes a steering gear, two knuckles of two steerable wheels, a steering actuator, a plurality of sensors, and a processing unit. The steering gear is connected to a first knuckle of the two knuckles and the steering gear is connected to a second knuckle of the two knuckles. The steering gear is connected to the steering actuator. The sensors are mounted at locations associated with the steering gear. Each of the plurality of sensors is configured to acquire steering system position information. Each of the plurality of sensors are configured to provide acquired steering system information to the processing unit.

Steering system for a vehicle

A control architecture for a vehicle connects a first control unit to a first vehicle communication network. A second control unit is connected to a second vehicle communication network. Commands are received by a plurality of commanded units from the first control unit and/or the second control unit over communication lines. An interlink communication line is connected between the first control unit to the second control unit.

Control architecture for a vehicle

A parking brake system for a vehicle includes an at least partially bistable valve unit to generate a control pressure for controlling at least one function of the parking brake system, and a relay valve which receives the control pressure from the valve unit and either pressurizes or bleeds at least one spring-loaded cylinder according to the control pressure. The valve unit is integrated into a first module integrated into a compressed air supply unit, and the relay valve is arranged in a second module which is arranged at a distance from the first module and the compressed air production system.
