A method for determining a break-away force in an actuator is provided, the actuator comprising an actuator armature including a positioning element movable in relation to the actuator housing. The positioning element is movable by means of an actuator drive such that a driving force is applied through the actuator drive to the positioning element. The actuator is in a resting state in the beginning, the driving energy required for moving the actuator drive is successively increased, wherein the driving energy is converted into a driving force by driving means, and a measurement value at the actuator drive is measured by at least one sensor, wherein as soon as a change of the measurement value is detected, a state is verified in which a holding force counteracts the movement of the position element.
