Abstract

The invention discloses methods and control systems for controlling an electronically controllable brake actuating system for automotive vehicles, with a depressurized pressure medium supply reservoir, with at least one pressure source which can be controlled by an electronic control unit. The pressure source is used to apply pressure to the wheel brakes of the vehicle, with pressure sensors and pressure control valves being associated with the wheel brakes. The pressure control valves are controllable in an analog manner by means of an electric variable in dependence on the differential pressure applied to them.
