1. A method for operating a steering system, which is configured as a steer-by-wire steering system, wherein the steering system comprises at least one steering input element, at least one steering actuation element that is operatively connected to the at least one steering input element, at least one first terminal detent configured to mechanically delimit a movement of the at least one steering actuation element in a first movement direction, and at least one second terminal detent configured to mechanically delimit a movement of the at least one steering actuation element in a second movement direction, comprising:
adapting a steering ratio between the at least one steering input element and the at least one steering actuation element such that a maximum deflection of the at least one steering input element in a first steering direction in which the at least one steering actuation element reaches the at least one first terminal detent, and a maximum deflection of the at least one steering input element in a second steering direction in which the at least one steering actuation element reaches the at least one second terminal detent, are at least substantially identical.
