Patent ID: 11196417

Abstract:
There is described a motor vehicle control device (10), with an at least partly electrically conductive control unit (12) which on an actuating surface (14) includes at least one capacitive actuating area (26), and a printed circuit board (20) associated to the control unit (12), which is spaced from the actuating surface (14) and comprises at least one electrode (34). The capacitive actuating area (26) comprises at least one sensor surface (24) provided on the actuating surface (14), which via at least one electrically conductive portion (28) of the control unit (12) and a press connection element (32) is electrically and directly connected with the at least one electrode (34) on the printed circuit board (20). The printed circuit board (20) and the control unit (12) are pressed against each other, wherein the press connection element (32) is mechanically connected with the electrode (34) and/or the electrically conductive portion (28). There is furthermore described a method for manufacturing an at least partly electrically conductive control unit (12) for a motor vehicle control device (10).
