A method for configuring a pivotable connection between a towing vehicle and a trailer by way of a trailer coupling, wherein configured in a locked state of the trailer coupling is a pivotable connection between a towing vehicle-proximal coupling element on the towing vehicle and a trailer-proximal coupling element on the trailer. The method includes establishing a coupling state of the trailer coupling by at least one item of status information once the towing vehicle has approached the trailer and causing a corrective movement such that the trailer and the towing vehicle move relative to one another. The corrective movement is caused when it cannot, or cannot plausibly, be established by the at least one item of status information whether the locked state of the trailer coupling is present.
