In a vehicle control device having a so-called keyless entry system in which a door lock control unit controls a door lock actuator by receiving a signal representing an identification code and transmitted from a transmitter, an internal-combustion engine control unit computes fuel injection quantity and ignition timing from control data stored in a memory in response to detection results inputted from respective detectors, and thereby drives a fuel injection valve and an igniter. The door lock control unit detects whether a theft is attempted on the vehicle, based on the switching states of various switches, and supplies the result of the detection to a constant-voltage circuit in the internal-combustion engine control unit in the form of a code signal; when a theft is detected, power supply to respective circuits in the internal-combustion engine control unit is shut off. Furthermore, the internal-combustion engine control unit checks whether the identification code received by a receiver matches the identification code prestored in the memory, and if they do not coincide, inhibits the internal-combustion engine from starting. Since identification code data that cannot be created in a pseudo manner is inputted to the internal-combustion engine control unit, not a binary signal indicating whether to permit or not permit the starting of the internal-combustion engine, the vehicle can be reliably prevented from being burgled and driven away. |
