Abstract:
1. A control arrangement for a hatch arrangement of a motor vehicle, the hatch arrangement including a hatch door, a motor vehicle lock and the control arrangement, and the motor vehicle lock having a latched state in which the motor vehicle lock is in securing engagement with a locking wedge and a released state in which the motor vehicle lock releases the locking wedge, wherein adjusting the hatch door in a closing direction moves the motor vehicle lock into engagement with the locking wedge and into the latched state, wherein an opening drive triggered by the control arrangement provides a motor powered releasing process in which the motor vehicle lock is moved from the latched state into a released state, and wherein the control arrangement controls the motor vehicle lock according to a relatch routine configured to avoid or cancel a relatch state within a predetermined relatch time interval after the releasing process, wherein the control arrangement provides a relatch monitoring process in which the control arrangement monitors whether a relatch indication occurs within the predetermined relatch time interval after the releasing process, and wherein the control arrangement triggers the relatch routine only after detecting a relatch indication within the predetermined relatch time interval after the releasing process.
