Abstract:
A method for operating an electric parking brake includes determining a fault relating to a first control unit which in a normal operating mode operates the electric parking brake. The method further includes operating a second control unit in an emergency operating mode as a function of the determined fault and determining a state for an operator control element of the parking brake using the second control unit and operating the parking brake as a first function of the determined state of the operator control element using the second control unit in the emergency operating mode.

Claim (Index 2):
The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n operating an actuator of the parking brake as a second function of the determined state of the operator control element to close the parking brake using the second control unit, wherein the determined state of the operator control element constitutes closing of the parking brake; and switching off the actuator of the parking brake using the second control unit if an actuator current reaches or exceeds a predetermined threshold value.
