Abstract
A braking system of a vehicle, with at least one brake control system with a brake pressure regulator which, in case of a braking request, builds up a hydraulic brake pressure by which the vehicle wheel brakes can be actuated. The brake control system is attached to the vehicle body via a holder. For the detection of a holder failure, an evaluation unit is provided, which acquires a sensor signal curve from an internal sensor built into the brake control system. In the evaluation unit, a signal comparison occurs. The acquired sensor signal curve is compared to a reference signal curve. In case of a significant deviation of the acquired sensor signal curve from the reference signal curve, the evaluation unit generates a holder damage signal.
