Abstract
The present application provides a calibration device for calibrating a crank angle of a calibrateable combustion engine, the calibrateable combustion engine and a method for calibrating. The calibration device is provided to determine a trigger wheel angle offset from a combustionless driving of the combustion engine in that an in-cylinder pressure profile is recorded, on the basis of which a trigger wheel angle offset is determined and stored at an offset memory of the combustion engine. The combustion engine is configured to determine a crank angle on the basis of a measured trigger wheel angle and the stored trigger wheel angle offset.
