A method (100) for performing a sensor verification for a vehicle (1) is disclosed. The vehicle comprises a first sensor (2) and a second sensor (3), wherein a first sensor coordinate system of the first sensor and a second sensor coordinate system of the second sensor are related to a vehicle coordinate system, and wherein the first sensor and the second sensor have an at least partly overlapping observable space. The method (100) comprises determining (101) a first position of an external object located in the at least partly overlapping observable space by means of the first sensor of the vehicle, and determining (102) a second position of the external object by means of the second sensor of the vehicle. Further, the method comprises comparing (103) the determined first position and the determined second position in relation to any one of the first sensor coordinate system, second sensor coordinate system or vehicle coordinate system in order to form a first comparison value. Still further, the method comprises determining (104) a reference position of at least one reference feature by means of the first sensor, wherein each reference feature is arranged on the vehicle at a predefined position relative to the first sensor, each reference feature being further arranged in an observable space of the first sensor, and comparing (105) each determined reference position with each corresponding predefined position in order to form a verification comparison value. Then, the method comprises generating (106) an output signal indicative of an operational status of the second sensor based on either one or both of the first comparison value and the verification comparison value, and further based on at least one predefined threshold value.
