The invention is directed to a lock for a door arrangement, wherein a catch and a pawl are provided. The catch can be in an open or closed position. The catch may be brought into holding engagement. The pawl may be brought into an engagement position. The pawl may be deflected into a release position. A pawl actuation lever is provided for deflecting the pawl. A switchable coupling arrangement comprises a first coupling lever, a second coupling lever and a spring biased coupling element. A control spring arrangement is provided that is engageable with the coupling element, which control spring arrangement acts against the spring bias of the coupling element, and that the pawl actuation lever is coupled to the control spring arrangement such that a predefined movement of the pawl actuation lever changes or eliminates the resulting force acting from the control spring arrangement onto the coupling element.
A motor vehicle lock for a motor vehicle door arrangement, wherein a catch and a pawl, which is assigned to the catch, are provided, wherein the catch can s be brought into an open position and into a closed position, wherein the catch, which is in the closed position, is or may be brought into holding engagement with a lock striker, wherein the pawl may be brought into an engagement position, in which it is in blocking engagement with the catch, wherein the pawl may be deflected into a release position, in which it releases the catch, wherein a pawl actuation lever is provided for deflecting the pawl into the release position, wherein a switchable coupling arrangement is provided between the pawl actuation lever and the pawl, wherein the switchable coupling arrangement comprises a first coupling lever on the side of the pawl actuation lever, a second coupling lever on the side of the pawl and a moveable, spring biased coupling element that may be moved into a closing position for a coupling engagement with the two coupling levers and into an opening position for decoupling the two coupling levers,
