Claim 4:
5. A device for carrying out the method according to claim 1, comprising:
the component movable by means of the drive which has the electric motor;
the switch assembly with at the least one switch for monitoring the position of the component; and
the analysis unit for analyzing the switch state of the at least one switch,
wherein the component is adapted to be shifted via the drive from the first position to the second position spatially separated from the first position, and
wherein during the shifting of the component, during a proper functioning of the at least one switch, the switch state of the at least one switch changes in a previously specified manner, wherein during the switching of the component, the power consumption of the electric motor changes in a previously specified manner and the analysis unit is designed such that depending on the analysis of the switch state of the at least one switch and an analysis of the power consumption of the electric motor, a fault action can be triggered by the analysis unit.
