Abstract:
A remote control engine starter apparatus for remotely starting an engine. A manually operable transmitter generates a signal, which is detected by a receiver when the receiver, is activated. A timer mounted in the vehicle and connected to the engine battery provides an output at a pre-determined time which connects electrical power through an on/off switch mounted on the vehicle engine to a first relay. The first relay connects electrical power from the vehicle battery to the receiver for powering the receiver. A second relay, energized by the first relay connects power to the starter relay of the engine to provide electrical power to the starter motor of the engine when an output from the timer means and a signal from the transmitter has been detected by the receiver.
