Abstract

A method for operating an internal combustion engine enables an improved determination of a preferred position of a shaft of the internal combustion engine. The preferred position of the shaft is derived here on the basis of a signal characterizing a course of combustion of the internal combustion engine as a function of a phase relation determined between this signal and the preferred position of the shaft.
