Abstract:
There is described a closure unit ( 14 ) for an air inlet of a motor vehicle which comprises three closure flaps ( 18, 22, 26 ) which can be pivoted about a rotation axis ( 16, 20, 24 ). In a closed position, the closure flaps ( 18, 22, 26 ) close the air inlet and a closure flap which is referred to as a second closure flap ( 22 ) abuts a closed position stop ( 36 ). In an open position, the closure flaps ( 18, 22, 26 ) release the air inlet and a closure flap which is referred to as the third closure flap ( 26 ) abuts an open position stop ( 40 ). Furthermore, a method for detecting defective closure flaps ( 18, 22, 26 ) of such a closure unit ( 14 ) is explained. Furthermore, a motor vehicle having one or more air inlets is presented, wherein at least one of the air inlets is provided with such a closure unit ( 14 ).

Claim (Index 10):
The method according to  claim 8 , wherein a defective, in particular broken or lost, third closure flap is detected by the third closure flap not running against the open position stop when the closure unit is activated in the direction of the open position.
