Abstract
A cell phone based vehicle control system includes a vehicle having an electronic network for the vehicle'"'"'s electrical devices. A data interface module is serially connected to a central processing module and the electronic network. A transceiver module is serially connected to the central processing module and the data interface module. A cellular telephone communicates wirelessly with the transceiver module. The central processing module includes at least one analog connection for use with non-electronic network equipped vehicles. The data interface module provides data translation between the vehicle'"'"'s electronic network and the central processing module. The transceiver module and cellular telephone include compatible data encryption/decryption units. The transceiver module includes a Global Positioning System (GPS) unit capable of identifying the location of the vehicle. The cellular telephone operates systems including remote locking, arming/disarming of an alarm system, engine start, panic mode, remote driver specific vehicle adjustments and remote auxiliary command functions.
