AFTERMARKET CONVENIENCE ENTRY AND START SYSTEM

摘要

A user detection system for a vehicle has a security system including a portable transponder, a touch sensor, a control system in communication with the touch sensor and the security system. A method installs the user detection system in the vehicle. The touch sensor includes a sensor strip installed on the exterior surface proximate the handle and a coating for covering the sensor strip, the coating visibly matching the exterior surface. The control system is operable to transmit the identification signal in response to receiving the sensor contact signal. The control system is operable to transmit the disable command to the security system upon authentication of the reply. An aftermarket push-to-start system includes a steering lock disabling device.
