Control assembly for a motor vehicle lock system

A method of operating a motor vehicle lock system provided with a first motor vehicle lock and a second motor vehicle lock each associated with a closure element of a motor vehicle and configured to move to a main locking position, in which a lock latch of the first and second motor vehicle locks engages a locking part to retain the closure element, and an opened position, wherein the motor vehicle lock system includes a sensor assembly configured to determine sensor values indicative of a number of positions of the first and second motor vehicle locks, wherein the first and the second motor vehicle locks each include a closing assembly, wherein the closing assembly of the first and second motor vehicle locks is configured to perform a number of closing processes, in which the closing assembly of the first and second motor vehicle locks act on at least one of the lock latch of the first and second motor vehicle locks and the locking part, wherein the motor vehicle lock system includes at least one electric closing drive configured to operate the closing assemblies, the method comprising:

• generating, by a control assembly, a control specification for the number of closing processes, the control specification based on sensor values and a coordination specification,
• executing, by the control assembly, a closing process of the first motor vehicle lock in accordance with the coordination specification;
• executing, by the control assembly, a closing process of the second motor vehicle lock in accordance with the coordination specification, wherein the closing process of the first motor vehicle lock and the closing process of the second motor vehicle lock are each based on a position of the first motor vehicle lock and a position of the second motor vehicle lock,
• wherein in accordance with the coordination specification the closing process of the first motor vehicle lock and the closing process of the second motor vehicle lock are each dependent both on the position of the first motor vehicle lock and on the position of the second motor vehicle lock;
• controlling, by the control assembly, the at least one closing drive in accordance with the control specifications in response to fulfillment of a starting criterion by the sensor values;
• and
• wherein the starting criterion is fulfilled in response to at least one of the first and second motor vehicle locks reaching a predetermined starting position.
