Abstract

A method for operating a braking system in a motor vehicle having at least two wheel brakes (54, 56), each of which can be activated by an electromechanical actuator of the self-locking type. Each wheel brake having a locking device for implementing a parking brake functionality, in which the locking device and respective electromechanical actuator is actuated and locked by the locking device when a parking brake function is carried out. A first method step is carried out in which the at least two actuators are actuated in succession and a second method step is carried out in which it is checked whether the at least two actuators have achieved respectively predefined brake application force. In the event of the at least two actuators having achieved the respectively predefined brake application force, the at least two actuators are locked in a third method step.
