Abstract
A method for operating a brake system of a motor vehicle includes actuating at least one of a first actuation device and a second actuation device of the brake system, and, in the event of a fault in a hydraulic brake device of the brake system, producing an electromechanical braking force via an electromechanical brake device of the brake system for decelerating the motor vehicle, irrespective of which of the first actuation device and the second actuation device is actuated.
Claims11
A method for operating a brake system of a motor vehicle, the brake system including a hydraulic brake device, an electromechanical brake device, a first actuation device configured to actuate at least one brake pad, and a second actuation device configured to actuate the at least one brake pad, the method comprising:
- actuating at least one of the first actuation device and the second actuation device;
- and
- in an event of a fault in the hydraulic brake device, producing an electromechanical braking force via the electromechanical brake device for decelerating the motor vehicle, irrespective of which of the first actuation device and the second actuation device is actuated.
A brake system for a motor vehicle, comprising:
- a hydraulic brake device;
- an electromechanical brake device;
- a first actuation device configured to actuate at least one brake pad;
- a second actuation device configured to actuate the at least one brake pad;
- and
- a control device configured to:
- actuate the second actuation device;
- and
- in an event of a fault in the hydraulic brake device when the first actuation device is actuated, actuate the second actuation device to produce an electromechanical braking force via the electromechanical brake device for decelerating the motor vehicle.
