1. A computer-implemented method for checking the proper functioning of a component in a vehicle by evaluating the system state of the component, the method comprising:
- measuring at least one state variable of the component, wherein the at least one state variable includes at least one of linear acceleration, transverse acceleration, and rate of rotation; and
checking, using the computer, the at least one measured state variable for the presence of at least one characteristic feature descriptive of the system state of the component, wherein the amplitude of the at least one measured state variable is checked as the at least one characteristic feature.

Abstract
In a method for checking the proper functioning of a component in a vehicle by evaluating the system state of the component with the aid of a sensor, a state variable is measured first and then the measured state variable is examined for at least one characteristic feature that is descriptive of the system state of the component.
