Abstract
A central check device is provided in a motor vehicle, to which device an enable message emitted by a first controller inside the vehicle or from a location outside the vehicle is supplied via a communication bus of the motor vehicle. The central check device evaluates the received enable message to identify the sequence control system to be enabled and the controller which comprises the sequence control system to be enabled. The central check device sends an enable command to the identified controller via the communication bus of the motor vehicle so as to enable the sequence control system which is to be enabled.
