Abstract
An internal combustion engine has a fuel pressure sensor, the measured value of which represents a fuel pressure in a fuel reservoir of the internal combustion engine. Fuel is metered from the fuel reservoir into a combustion chamber. In a predefined idle operating state (LBZ) of the internal combustion engine, a speed of the internal combustion engine is regulated so as to reach a specific idling speed. During the regulation process, a value of a manipulated variable for metering the fuel is determined, the value being required to reach the specific idling speed. Furthermore, it is concluded that the measured fuel pressure value contains an error (ERR) when the determined required value of the manipulated variable differs from a reference value (REF) predefined for the predefined idle operating state (LBZ) of the internal combustion engine by at least a given amount or factor.
