Abstract

The present invention discloses a system and apparatus for remotely starting automobiles. The invention provides a remote starter or a key fob connected with different components of the automobile. The remote starter is provided with an additional feature of LED light indicator to confirm the ignition of the engine using the remote starter. The remote starter also includes a computer chip to establish a communication between the remote starter and the automobile.

Claims

1. A system and apparatus for remote starter of an automobile comprising:

(a) a key fob or remote starter connected to the automobile sensing circuits which electrically sense pre-determined conditions of said automobile;

(b) an indicating means fir receiving signal about pre-determined conditions to ensure the installation of the said key fob or remote starter;

(c) communication medium to transmit the signals from automobile to the key fob or remote starter

2. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein said indicating means is a light emitting diode.

3. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein said communication medium is a computer chip embedded in the key fob or remote starter to communicate and transfer the signals.

4. A system for selectively operating components of a vehicle comprising:

(a) vehicular components controlled by a vehicle computer;

(b) a remote unit that includes input device for providing signals indicative of the remote unit identification and a desired operational state of the vehicle components;

(c) a controller to generate command signals from input signals and further generate signals indicative of operational state of the vehicle components

5. The system as claimed in claim 4, wherein the system includes a unit affixed to the vehicle that has a receiver for decoding received command signals and a mechanism configured with the vehicle components.

6. A remote starter system for a vehicle that is operable to start the vehicle ignition via a remote transmitter or key fob the like.

7. The remote starter system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the system includes a control or control unit or module at the vehicle that receives the transmitted signal and activates or energizes or starts the vehicle ignition.

8. The remote starter system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the control may communicate one or more signals to the remote transmitter or key fob to notify the user that the vehicle ignition has been actuated

9. The remote starter system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the notifications can be transmitted and received in the form of LED light indicators provided on the key fob that will notify the user about the ignition of the engine of the automobile.
