Claim 0:
1. A method for operating a motor vehicle locking system for acting upon a motor vehicle cover, the method comprising:
acting on a drive for a motor vehicle lock of the cover to drive the motor vehicle lock from a starting point depending on a pre-locked position and a fully latched position of the motor vehicle lock detected by a sensor;
detecting an over-travel position which is beyond the fully latched position of the motor vehicle lock via the sensor; and
driving a motor in a reverse direction irrespective of a previously assumed fully latched position;
the method further comprising detecting via the sensor a normal locking process including a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the fully latched position and a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the over-travel position, wherein when there is a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the fully latched position and a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the over-travel position the motor is driven in reverse to move the motor vehicle lock to the fully latched position; and
the method further comprising detecting via the sensor a cancelled normal locking process including a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the over-travel position in absence of a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the fully latched position, wherein when there is a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the over-travel position in absence of a detection that the motor vehicle lock has reached the fully latched position the motor is driven in reverse to move the motor vehicle lock to the starting point.
