A brake system for a vehicle includes a first axle-pressure-modulator (APM) for service-brake-chambers associated with a first vehicle-axle, a second APM for spring-brake-cylinders associated with a second vehicle-axle, wherein the second APM is connected to an electronic-brake-control-unit configured to issue a first electric-control-signal for controlling the first APM and a second electric-control-signal for controlling the second APM, a further electronic-brake-control-unit configured to issue a further first electric-control-signal for controlling the first APM and a further second electric-control-signal for controlling the second APM, an electronic-parking-brake-controller configured to issue a second pneumatic-control-signal for controlling the spring-brake-cylinders, and a pressure-modulator-unit configured to convert a pneumatic signal or an electric signal issued by the electronic-parking-brake-controller into a first pneumatic-control-signal for controlling the first APM.
