Abstract

The invention is directed to a method for controlling an internal combustion engine wherein an error state is detected and/or at least one error reaction is initiated when the injection, which is determined in dependence upon the detected load, and the injection time, which is corrected in dependence upon at least an additional operating variable, deviate from each other.
