Abstract
The invention is directed to an arrangement for controlling an internal combustion engine wherein one or more position data values are determined with reference to the position of the adjusting device via a plausibility check with a signal value representing the load of the engine. If required, an emergency operation takes place in the context of an electronic engine power control with position data values which are unreliable and on the basis of a desired value, which is pregiven by the driver and which represents the load of the engine, and a corresponding actual value.
