Abstract
A system () for detecting a readiness of a closure element () of a motor vehicle to lock has a first sensor () for detecting a position signal of the closure element () and a second magnetic sensor () for detecting a magnetic field signal (). The first sensors () are connected by a data link to an electronic unit (), and the magnetic field signal () and the position signal are passed by a data link to the electronic unit (). The electronic unit () has a memory () with at least one stored magnetic field signal value (). The electronic unit () generates a change in the output signal when there is a positive comparison of the magnetic field signal value () with the detected magnetic field signal (), and when an end position of the closure element () is detected.
