Abstract: A motor vehicle drive assembly which is equipped with a drive element and an abutment, and also with at least one spring between the drive element and the abutment. In addition, there is at least one drive element sensor which, depending on the application of force by the drive element counter to the force of the spring and an associated relative movement between the drive element and the abutment, transmits sensor signals to a control unites. According to the invention, the drive element sensor, depending on the application of force by the drive element, generates different force-dependent, sliding sensor signals which are evaluated by the control unites, for example to drive an actuating element.

Abstract: A motor vehicle lock which is equipped with a locking mechanism consisting substantially of a catch and a pawl. Also provided is a sensor arrangement associated with the locking mechanism comprising a fixed sensor and a sensing element that influences signals of the sensor and follows the locking mechanism, or vice versa. The sensor generates at least two different signals associated with the presence and absence of the sensing element in the region of influence of the sensor. According to the invention, the single sensing element also produces at least one additional third signal of the single sensor in accordance with its position in relation to the sensor.
