Abstract
A switching device in particular for a vehicle has a switching lever which can be deflected into different switching positions to activate switching processes. An actuator is driven by a control device to cause the switching lever to vibrate, the control device receiving input signals from at least one other control device and determines therefrom a set conditions for admissible deflection of the switching lever. The actuator is driven by the control device when the switching lever is deflected from a respective switching position into a switching position which does not meet the set conditions.
