Abstract
A method and a device are described for traction control in a motor vehicle that is equipped with an anti-lock system. When the brake pedal is depressed and an unallowable slip occurs on at least one driving wheel, the brake pressure built up by the driver is controlled in the wheel brake associated with this wheel by setting the associated valve arrangement for traction control. This brake pressure control only takes place if at least one of the following criteria is met: the driver has actuated an additional switching element, the vehicle speed is less than a predefined threshold value, a predefined time period has not elapsed, and/or the gas pedal has been depressed.
