Abstract: A motor vehicle lock for a locking element of a motor vehicle, wherein the motor vehicle lock has a lock latch and a pawl system that locks the lock latch in a closed state and releases the lock latch in an open state, wherein the motor vehicle lock has a functional element that can be pivoted about a functional element axis and to which an adjustment range between a first end position and a second end position is assigned, wherein the motor vehicle lock has a sensor system for determining continuous position values for the functional element within the adjustment range. It is proposed that the sensor system comprises a magnetically sensitive sensor assembly, a magnet assembly and a control unit, that the magnet assembly is arranged on the functional element and the sensor assembly is otherwise arranged separately from the magnet assembly on the motor vehicle lock.

Abstract: A motor vehicle lock having a catch and a pawl, wherein the catch can be brought from an open position into at least one closed position for holding the closure element in holding engagement with a closing element, wherein the pawl can be brought into a blocking state, in which it holds the catch in the closed position, into a release state, in which it releases the catch, and into a contact state, in which the pawl is in contact with the catch in the open position and can be brought into its blocking state in order to allow the catch to be held in the closed position, wherein the motor vehicle lock has an opening device having an electrical opening drive for establishing the release state by motor, wherein the motor vehicle lock has a lock controller for controlling the opening drive.

Abstract: A lock, comprising a lock latch and a detent pawl, wherein the lock latch can be brought into open and closed positions, the lock latch in the closed position can be brought into engagement with a striker or the like, wherein the detent pawl can be brought into an engaged position in which said detent pawl fixes the lock latch in the closed position, and wherein the detent pawl can be lifted into a release position wherein the detent pawl releases the lock latch. The detent pawl can be brought into the release position by an actuating arrangement, a crash element is provided, said crash element can be adjusted by the crash-induced deformation of said component into a crash position, and the crash element in the crash position or an element coupled thereto blocks the detent pawl and/or the actuating arrangement or decouples the actuating arrangement from the detent pawl.
