Abstract
The invention relates to a sensor arrangement for a motor vehicle, with a pane, a sensor housing, and an optical sensor, wherein the sensor housing is arranged on one side of the pane such that between the sensor housing and the pane, a gap is formed, in which the optical sensor is arranged. To allow for a deicing of the pane in an area of the sensor housing in a particularly simple and thus cost-effective manner, it is provided that between the sensor housing and the side of the pane, a heat conducting element is arranged to conduct heat from outside the sensor housing in between the sensor housing and the pane.
