Abstract
The method relates to a method for boosting the braking force in an electromotor operated slip-controllable vehicle brake system having electromechanical brake boosting. The vehicle brake system includes a braking-intention detection device, an electromechanically actuatable brake booster, and an electronically actuatable brake-pressure control device. In the event of a malfunction of the brake booster, the boosting of the brake pressure is alternatively assumed by the brake-pressure control device. In the event of a malfunction of the brake boosting, it is checked whether a generation and a transmission of a trigger signal representing the actuation of the braking-intention detection device from the first electronic control device of the brake booster to a second electronic control device of the brake-pressure control device is possible, and if this is so, the trigger signal is transmitted via an existing communications link between the control devices.
