Abstract

A method for controlling an active restraint system in a motor vehicle includes providing of several status signals, transferring of the status signals to a control algorithm as input values, and controlling the active restraint system according to the result of the control algorithm. The method is characterized by checking whether one or more of the status signals have failed, reproducing a failed status signal, and replacing the failed status signal by its reproduction.
