ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an electromotive power steering for a motor vehicle, in which a special type of reluctance motor or series wound motor is used while such an electric motor is electronically commutated. In order to recognize an error condition in the electronic control device and the electric motor, adequate mechanisms are provided in the circuit arrangement (15), the electric motor being cut from the power source by means of a relay (16) or by short-circuiting the power source downstream of a safety device (17) with the aid of a thyristor (18).
