A theft deterrent system according to which the battery of a motor vehicle is selectively rendered inoperative. A numbered code is manually entered onto a key pad which may be located on the dashboard of the motor vehicle. The key pad is connected to an integrated circuit which is an integral component of the battery. When the proper numbered code is entered, the battery is rendered either operative or inoperative, as desired. When the battery has been inactivated and an incorrect number is entered, as by an unauthorized person, the battery remains inactivated, but an alarm is energized. |
