Abstract
Control device for controlling functions of a motor vehicle for a load dump having a computer for generating at least one control signal that is dependent on the level of the operating voltage feeding the control device. A power supply system generates an operating voltage that is supplied to a threshold switch. As long as the operating voltage is above a limit value in the load dump case, the threshold switch outputs a response signal to an evaluator. The latter then only supplies an output signal and thus reports the load dump case to a computer unit when the response signal lasts longer than a set time span.
