A method and an electronic control device for diagnosing the mixture formation in internal combustion engines including tank ventilation. The diagnosis is linked to the mixture adaptation and is performed only with active lambda control and, therefore, especially not in operating modes of the internal combustion engine in which lambda is merely controlled. In the method, outside of active lambda control, an indication of a mixture or probe fault is recognized in that, given active tank ventilation and non-active mixture adaptation, a fault suspicion is formed when a measurement for the influence of the tank ventilation on the mixture composition, the measurement is formed assuming an intact system, takes on implausible values. If this suspicion exists, the mixture adaptation is requested to verify the suspicion, if appropriate.
