Abstract: A system and method for controlling an automatic operation of a power door of a vehicle is presented. An actuation of an interior switch by a user is detected and, upon detecting the actuation of the interior switch, whether at least one door of the vehicle is locked is determined. When the at least one door of the vehicle is locked, whether a vehicle security is set is determined. When the at least one door of the vehicle is locked and the vehicle security is set, the automatic operation of the power door is prohibited. When the at least one door of the vehicle is not locked or the vehicle security is not set, the automatic operation of the power door is permitted.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a card body includes a card part onto which an IC module is to be mounted, and a bracket part to support the card part. The card part includes a bevel. The bracket part includes a hole, a first bridge part, a second bridge part, a first break-off line, and a second break-off line. The hole is formed at a circumference of the card part. The first bridge part connects the bracket part and the card part. The second bridge part connects the bracket part and the card part. The second bridge part is provided at a farer position from the bevel than the first bridge part. The first break-off line is provided with a first depth at the first bridge part. The second break-off line is provided with a second depth at the second bridge part. The second depth is shallower than the first depth.

Abstract: A key fob assembly includes a mechanical key, a key fob, a control in the key fob, Hall effect switches in the key fob, and magnets associated with the mechanical key. The mechanical key is configured to cooperate with a mechanical lock. The key fob is configured to selectively connect with the mechanical key. The control in the key fob is for transmitting wireless signals to a vehicle to actuate components on the vehicle. The Hall effect switches in the key fob are each in electrical communication with the control. At least one of the Hall effect switches changes an operating state based on detecting a positive magnetic field and at least one other Hall effect switch changes an operating state based on detecting a negative magnetic field. Respective poles of the magnets are disposed such that connection of the mechanical key with the key fob in a storage position aligns the poles of the magnets with respective Hall effect switches for changing the operating state of the respective Hall effect switches.
