A method for operating a lock arrangement for a motor vehicle, the lock arrangement has a lock which fixes a vehicle flap movably mounted on the motor vehicle in a closed position when the lock is in the locking position, holds it in the closed position when the lock is in the unlocking position or releases it for displacement into a first open position and releases it for displacement into a second open position different from the first open position when the lock is in the release position. The lock is actuated using an actuator by which an actuating element can be displaced. The lock is brought from the locking position to the unlocking position upon a first displacement of the actuating element and from the unlocking position to the release position upon a second displacement of the actuating element.
A method for operating a lock arrangement for a motor vehicle, wherein the lock arrangement has a lock which fixes a vehicle flap movably mounted on the motor vehicle in a closed position when the lock is in the locking position, holds it in the closed position when the lock is in the unlocking position or releases it for displacement into a first open position, and releases it for displacement into a second open position different from the first open position when the lock is in the release position, wherein the lock is actuated using an actuator that displaces an actuating element, wherein the actuating element is movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the lock is brought from the locking position to the unlocking position when the actuating element is displaced a first time from the first position to the second position, and from the unlocking position to the release position when the actuating element is displaced a second time from the first position to the second position after the actuating element returns from the second position to the first position, and wherein the actuator only displaces the actuating element when controlled by both of two separate control units.
A lock arrangement for a motor vehicle, wherein the lock arrangement has a lock which fixes a vehicle flap movably mounted on the motor vehicle in a closed position when the lock is in the locking position, holds it in the closed position when the lock is in the unlocking position or releases it for displacement into a first open position, and releases it for displacement into a second open position different from the first open position when the lock is in the release position, wherein the lock is actuated using an actuator that displaces an actuating element, wherein the actuating element is movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the lock is provided and designed to be brought from the locking position into the unlocking position upon a first displacement of the actuating element from the first position to the second position and into the release position upon a second displacement of the actuating element from the first position to the second position after the actuating element returns from the second position to the first position, and wherein the lock arrangement is designed such that the actuator only displaces the actuating element when controlled by both of two separate control units.
