A process is provided for the rapid and safe activation of a fuel pump, having a definable fallback level for a delivery volume of the fuel pump. The process recognizes a possible crash situation and, defines the fallback level as a first delivery volume value which is assigned to a closing position of the fuel pump in response to the recognized possible crash situation. A control system includes a crash recognition device and an electronic fuel pump with the definable fallback level, in which case the crash recognition device is connected with respect to communication with the electronic fuel pump, and the crash recognition device is constructed for implementing the process.

Process and system for the rapid and safe activation of fuel pumps

An electronic control system for a safety device of a motor vehicle includes a first sensor for a motion quantity, a computer for converting the motion quantity to a triggering signal for the safety device, and a second sensor for checking the plausibility of the sensor signal supplied by the first sensor. The two sensors are arranged with an identical construction and/or effect and at an at least approximately identical location on a printed circuit board such that, in a proper operating mode, their output signals have different preceding signs and are identical with respect to their amount over their entire operating range.

Electronic control system for a safety device of a motor vehicle

A radio remote control for controlling at least one first vehicle function that is relevant for functional safety, and further vehicle functions not related to functional safety. The remote control generates and wirelessly transmits transmission data to the vehicle for implementing the first vehicle function in response to a user input and a security information, provided upon actuation of a user interface and a security input actuator, respectively, by the user. In the case of a user input that is associated with the first vehicle function, the security information is only used to generate transmission data that causes the first vehicle function to be carried out if the security input actuator was actuated.

A brake system of a motor vehicle can activate a brake when an activation condition exists. The braking effect is reduced when a deactivation condition exists. It is suggested that at least one property of the reduction of the braking effect, e.g., the duration or the gradient of the reduction, be at least temporarily a function of a longitudinal inclination of the motor vehicle.

Method for operating a brake system of a motor vehicle

A process and device for controlling the brake system of a motor vehicle with all-wheel drive are described. The process and the device include an electronic control unit which controls at least one coupling unit for engaging and disengaging an all-wheel drive, so that at least one wheel can be decoupled, from the drive. After stopping the motor vehicle, for example on a sloping roadway, a predefined brake pressure on at least one wheel of the motor vehicle is held either depending on or independently from the extent of brake pedal actuation. The brake pressure is held until a brake pressure reduction condition is present, such as during a brake pressure holding time. During that time, the brake pressure on at least the one wheel is reduced and the wheel is decoupled from the drive to detect slippage, while at least one other wheel remains pressurized with brake pressure.
