Abstract

The disclosure relates to a control device in a motor vehicle. The control device includes a housing cover with a peripheral edge region, and a planar, electrical connecting apparatus with integrated conductor tracks. The housing cover, in the edge region, is cohesively connected at least to the connecting apparatus and forms a cavity with the connecting apparatus. The control device also includes at least one electronic component within the cavity. The connecting apparatus electrically connects the at least one electronic component to electronic components outside the cavity. The housing cover is encapsulated by injection molding in a media-tight manner by a polymer beyond the peripheral edge region.
