Abstract
A method for operating an electronic brake system for motor vehicles includes determining, by a brake control unit, respective brake pressures acting on wheel brakes by controlling a pressure distribution ratio of brake pressures acting on wheel brakes of a front axle to brake pressures acting on wheel brakes of a rear axle of the motor vehicle. The method further includes receiving, by the brake control unit, driver brake requests determined by a driver of the motor vehicle and/or external brake requests and determining, by the brake control unit, appropriate brake pressures. The brake control unit takes into consideration an initial pressure distribution ratio value, which is ascertained in a driver braking mode or in a pressure control mode and is stored and kept available for later consideration.
