A sensor and a method for the sensor, for determining an actual mounting configuration of the sensor on a motor vehicle. The sensor is designed to be mounted in different mounting configurations and to be operated in each of the different mounting configurations. The method includes: determining a misalignment of the sensor relative to a mounting configuration to be tested, measurement data of a measurement method being interpreted based on the mounting configuration to be tested, assumed as correct; and recognizing as correct or incorrect the mounting configuration to be tested based on the determined misalignment of the sensor; in the case in which a mounting configuration to be tested is recognized as correct, this mounting configuration being determined as the actual mounting configuration of the sensor.
