LOCK CODE RECOVERY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A lock code recovery system for selectively sending a lock code to a proximate personal electronic device, wherein a recognizable code is associated with the proximate personal electronic device, the system comprising:
- a user input device for receiving feedback; and
a control module in communication with the user input device, the control module having a memory with an application and at least one recognizable code stored thereon, the application having the lock code associated with the application for at least activating or deactivating the application, the control module comprising;
a control logic for monitoring the user input device for feedback indicating the lock code associated with the application should be sent to the proximate personal device;
a control logic for detecting the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device over a short-range wireless network;
a control logic for comparing the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module with the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device;
a control logic for determining if the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module is identical to the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device;
a control logic for establishing a short-range wireless connection between the proximate personal electronic device and the control module; and
a control logic for sending a signal indicating the lock code to the proximate personal device over the short-range wireless connection if the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module is identical to the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device.

Abstract
A lock code recovery system for selectively sending a lock code to a proximate personal electronic device is provided. A recognizable code is associated with the proximate personal electronic device. The lock code recovery system includes a user input device for receiving feedback and a control module. The control module is in communication with the user input device, and has a memory with an application and at least one recognizable code stored thereon. The application has the lock code associated with the application for at least activating or deactivating the application. The control module includes control logic for monitoring the user input device for feedback indicating the lock code associated with the application should be sent to the proximate personal device.

18. A vehicle having a lock code recovery system for sending a lock code to a proximate personal electronic device, wherein a recognizable code is associated with the proximate personal electronic device, the system comprising:
-
a user input device for receiving feedback; a display in communication with the user input device; and a control module in communication with the user input device and the display, the control module having a memory with a valet application and at least one recognizable code stored thereon, the valet application having the lock code associated with the valet application for at least activating or deactivating the valet application, the control module comprising; a control logic for monitoring the user input device for feedback indicating the lock code associated with the valet application should be sent to the proximate personal device; a control logic for detecting the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device over a short-range wireless network; a control logic for comparing the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module with the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device; a control logic for determining if the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module is identical to the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device; a control logic for establishing a short-range wireless connection between the proximate personal electronic device and the control module; and a control logic for sending a self-addressed short messaging services (SMS) message indicating the lock code to the proximate personal device over the short-range wireless connection if the at least one recognizable code stored in the memory of the control module is identical to the recognizable code associated with the proximate personal electronic device - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
