Abstract

The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for detecting measured values in combination with an engine control system for motor vehicles. The position of an adjusting device is determined on the basis of stored extreme values of this position and the detected positioning signal. The stored extreme values are corrected or learned anew at the end of an operating cycle of the motor vehicle after the engine is switched off.
