Abstract
The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for controlling an internal combustion engine wherein the operational reliability of the control is ensured by comparing the actual torque of the engine to a maximum permissible torque. This torque comparison is switched off and another monitoring function is activated when a fault in the area of charge detection is suspected.
