1. A method for operating an operating system of a motor vehicle, comprising:
specifying a control command (M1) for controlling the motor vehicle via a control element;
wherein the control command (M1) specified via the control element is sensorially acquired and passed on from an electronic control unit to an electromechanical actuator unit as a control signal (S2);
wherein the actuator unit implements the control command (M1) according to the control signal (S2);
wherein the operating system is monitored for an occurrence of a deviation from a target behavior of the actuator unit, and if a deviation is detected, tactile feedback (FB1) is applied to the control element;
wherein a degree of wear of the actuator unit is monitored by monitoring the deviation from the target behavior.
