Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0001943A1] The invention relates to a method for the starter cut-out of an internal combustion engine, according to which a starter motor which can mesh with the internal combustion engine for starting same is disengaged and switched off when the internal combustion engine runs autonomously. The instant of starter cut-out is determined from a characteristic of a starter current of the starter motor. According to the invention a signal proportional to the starter current (IS) is evaluated to determine the instant (tA) of starter cut-out. A characteristic curve is evaluated with a signal that is proportional to the starter current, which curve depends on an operating state of the internal combustion engine.
