A control module includes a circuit board having conductor paths arranged on at least one plane and having at least one rigid, inflexible conductor path section. The control module also includes an electronic control circuit which electrically contacts the conductor paths and has electrical components. The control module also includes a pan-shaped cover part protecting the control circuit. The cover part is arranged over a part of the electronic control circuit and contacts a side of the circuit board in a sealing manner with a flat contact region aligned parallel to the side. At least part of the electronic control circuit is protectively arranged in a housing inner chamber between the cover part and the circuit board, and electrical contacts of the circuit board are provided outside of the housing inner chamber, which is covered by the cover part, to contact electrical components of the control module.
