Abstract: A method for operating a brake system for a motor vehicle, wherein the brake system has a braking pressure source and at least one wheel brake which can be pressurized with a braking pressure which is provided by means of the braking pressure source and acting on a brake piston. For performing a diagnosis of the brake system, the wheel brake is pressurized with a braking pressure which corresponds to a diagnosis braking pressure and which applies a certain force on the brake piston, and a counterforce directed oppositely to said force is applied to the brake piston.

Abstract: An operating procedure for a brake system of a motor vehicle, wherein the brake system comprises a friction brake and a regenerative brake, wherein the driving situation (F) is evaluated with regard to the use of the regenerative brake in the case of a braking, wherein, as a function of the result of the evaluation (A), a distribution function (D) is specified for the distribution of a braking torque (M) to the friction brake and to the regenerative brake.

Abstract: A method for operating an electrically operated or also electrically operable motor vehicle provided with a rechargeable electric energy storage device associated with the drive motor of the motor vehicle. A target charging state is determined for the energy storage device and an operating strategy is determined for a route that is calculated, entered or predicted for the next trip, by which recuperative deceleration is enabled with a specifiable minimum amount for deceleration processes occurring along the route.

A target charging state is determined for the energy storage device and an operating strategy is determined for a route that is calculated, entered or predicted for the next trip, by which recuperative deceleration is enabled with a specifiable minimum amount for deceleration processes occurring along the route. A total mass of the motor vehicle, including optionally a trailer connected to the motor vehicle, deviating from an input normal value and an air resistance of the motor vehicle deviating from a predetermined normal value are taken into account.

Abstract: A method for programming a controller, in particular in a motor vehicle, which is switched from the operating mode to the programming mode by a signal which is supplied externally to the controller. In a method which ensures adequate protection against unauthorized reprogramming of the controller and is nevertheless simple to handle, the external signal is used to produce switching information in a programmable read only memory, which stores at least one operating program and/or data (which is updated at predetermined intervals) for the controller and causes the changeover to the programming mode when the controller is activated.
