Abstract
A method and a device are proposed for controlling a setting element in a vehicle, in which at preestablished operating states a self test is carried out for driving the setting element. Before carrying out the self test, a drive signal quantity of preestablished magnitude is transmitted to the setting element, the quantity leading to a preestablished deflection of the setting element, and thereafter the setting element is once again returned to its initial position.
