1. A system for operating a remote device from an automotive vehicle comprising:
- a keypad generating a first coded signal;
a push button coupled to the security module;
a memory having a memory code; and
a transmitter controller coupled to the memory and the push button, said transmitter controller disabling operation of the push button until the first coded signal matches the memory code, when the first coded signal matches the memory code enabling the push button, the transmitter controller generating a wireless control signal for operating the remote device in response to activating the push button.

13. A system for an automotive vehicle comprising:
-
a bus; a keypad coupling a first coded signal and a disable code to the bus; and a transmitter controller coupled to the bus for receiving the disable code and first coded signal, said transmitter controller having an enabled state and a disabled state, said transmitter controller comprising a memory and enabling logic, said enabling logic changing the enabled state to a disabled state in response to the disable code and changing the disabled state to an enabled state in response to the disable code, said enabling logic determining a control signal corresponding to the first coded signal, said transmitter controller comprising a transmitter generating a wireless signal corresponding to said control signal when the transmitter controller is in the enabled state. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method of operating a remotely controlled device using a transmitter of an automotive vehicle comprising:
-
generating a disable code corresponding to a combination of buttons from a keypad coupled to the vehicle; changing a state of a transmitter controller from an enabled state to a disabled state or the disabled state to then enabled state in response to the disable code; generating a first coded signal corresponding to a combination of buttons from a keypad coupled to the vehicle; determining a control signal corresponding to the first coded signal when the first coded signal is stored in memory; and transmitting a wireless control signal corresponding to the first coded signal from a transmitter of the vehicle when the transmitter is in the enabled state. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
