Because the universal character of the motor vehicle lock and in particular of the associated lock housing requires that use on a driver's door and, for example, on a rear side door as well as on a passenger door must be covered. For this reason, the first switch socket is typically designed as a lock cylinder switch socket, while the second switch socket is generally a child safety switch socket.
  • the first switch nut or lock cylinder switch nut is consequently set up to interact with a lock cylinder which is generally only and exclusively on a driver's door of a motor vehicle.

  • the two locking units described above can be dispensed with on a passenger door.
  • the two security units described above are generally and preferably activated manually, namely on the one hand with the aid of a key in a lock cylinder interacting with the lock cylinder switch nut and on the other hand by, for example, manual activation the child safety switch, it is necessary that the lock housing is equipped with two different openings for the respective access or connection or direct manual activation.
