Abstract
A system and a method for data communication with a vehicle control device include a flash adapter which is inserted with a vehicle key into an ignition lock of a vehicle. Upon insertion into the ignition lock, the vehicle key is authenticated. Subsequently, a comparison between the control device data stored in the key and the vehicle can be triggered by using the flash adapter.
