Abstract
A motor vehicle door arrangement is equipped with at least one electromotive drive for positioning a door leaf in a predetermined gap position relative to a motor vehicle body. A state sensor which is connected to a control unit and detects the state of the door leaf is also provided. The control unit acts on the electromotive drive in accordance with signals of the state sensor, wherein the electromotive drive is preferably only acted on if the positioning of the door leaf, based on the state, requires this. According to the invention, for this purpose, the electromotive drive acts on a body component via a switch lever, equipped with its own switch sensor, in order to position the door leaf.
