Abstract
An assembly for controlling an electric vacuum pump for a vehicle, which is connectable by at least one switch, which can be controlled by an electronic control unit, to a supply voltage, wherein the electronic control unit in a start-up phase connects the vacuum pump to an additional electrical resistor between the supply voltage and the vacuum pump.
