Abrégé

In particular, the invention relates to a method for controlling multiple functions on a vehicle (F) which are provided by one or more electronically controllable components (1a-1d, 2, 3, 4, 5.1-5.4, 6, A1, A2, T1, T2) on or in a vehicle (F) and which are to be carried out in a process scenario. A plurality of different control units (2, 3, 4, 5.1-5.4, 6) are provided, via which the functions of the components (1a-1b, 10-14, T1, T2) can be controlled and each of which is connected to a vehicle (F) electronic control device (SE) in which a control program for carrying out the process scenario is implemented or must still be implemented. At least one part of the control program is implemented in one of the control units (2, 3, 4, 5.1-5.4, 6) such that at least one of the control units (2, 3, 4, 5.1-5.4, 6) is configured so as to carry out at least one part of a function provided in the process scenario by means of a component (1a-1d, 10-14, T1, T2) which can be controlled by the control unit (2, 3, 4, 5.1-5.4, 6) if the electronic control device (SE) is not yet operational or is not yet completely operational.

Abrégé

The proposed solution relates to a method for locking a vehicle (1) having: - an electronically controllable adjustment device (3) for power-operated adjustment of at least one vehicle door (2) between an open and a closed position, and - a locking mechanism (4) for locking the vehicle door (2) in the closed position, wherein in response to sensory detection of a parking situation in which the vehicle (1) is not intended to be used, the vehicle door (2), which has been adjusted into the closed position, is blocked against movement by the adjusting device (3) independently of the locking mechanism (4). The proposed solution also relates to a locking system for locking a vehicle.
