System and method for fault detection in the course of influencing the handling characteristics of a vehicle
First Claim
1. A system for detecting a fault occurring in a course of influencing handling characteristics of a vehicle having a braking system including at least a first brake circuit and a second brake circuit, and at least one return pump for each brake circuit, comprising:
- at least one wheel-speed sensor; and
an evaluation unit;
wherein a fault is detected by comparing detected speeds of wheels allocated to the at least first and second brake circuits.

Abstract
A system is provided for detecting faults occurring in the course of influencing the handling characteristics of a vehicle having at least two brake circuits, at least one return pump for each brake circuit and an arrangement for detecting the fault, the arrangement for detecting the fault including wheel-speed sensors and an evaluation unit, a fault being detectable by comparing the speeds of wheels allocated to different brake circuits. Furthermore, a method is described for detecting a fault occurring in the course of influencing the handling characteristics of a vehicle.
