Sensor Assembly for a Vehicle

A sensor assembly includes a sensor element and at least two control units, each having an evaluation and control unit and an energy source. In a first control unit, a first evaluation and control unit is connected to a first energy source, and in a second control unit, a second evaluation and control unit is connected to a second energy source. The at least two control units and the sensor element are interconnected by at least one separate interconnection unit. Each interconnection unit connects a first connection of an associated sensor element to the first energy source and/or to the second energy source. A second connection of the sensor element is earthed. A sensor current flowing through the sensor element is modulated at least with information about a detected measured variable. The first evaluation and control unit and/or the second evaluation and control unit evaluate(s) the detected sensor current.
