Vehicle security system having a secure valet mode of operation

摘要

A vehicle security system has a secure valet/programming switch 90. To either enter the system valet mode, or select a function via the valet/programming switch, the user must first enter a valid personal access code via a remote control transmitter 60. To accommodate various drivers of the same vehicle, more than one valid code can be stored in the system. Any of the personal access codes may be changed any time, but after the user's present code is entered.
