More Information
Summary:A method for operating an electromechanically operable parking brake for motor vehicles with a driving motor furnished with a mechanical gearbox, uses a clutch pedal travel sensor to sense the position of a clutch pedal of the motor vehicle and a gear information sensor to find out whether the operator has selected a gear of the gearbox. Since the automated release operation of the parking brake is a safety-critical method, the signals of the clutch pedal travel sensor ( 18 ) and the gear information sensor ( 15 ) are checked in terms of their plausibility.
