Abstract: A method for operating a fuel feed pump, the fuel feed pump having a pump system and an electrically commutated electric motor, the pump system being drivable by the electric motor, includes: detecting fluctuation in circular motion of the pump system over a rotational speed of the pump system to obtain a value of the fluctuation; standardizing the detected value of the fluctuation to obtain a standardized valise; and in a case in which a predefinable limit is exceeded by the standardized value, limiting a gradient of change in the rotational speed of the pump system.

Abstract: The electric energy provided to some loads in a vehicle is limited or controlled by a power controller that receives a signal specifying how much power should be provided to the load. When the link providing the power-specifying signal is lost, the controller adjusts the power to the load according to an internal temperature of the controller instead of simply providing full power to the load.
