Abstract: A remote keyless entry (RKE) system performs multiple functions in a vehicle. One function is to respond to RKE controller keypresses to lock or unlock doors, to start an engine, or to arm or deactivate an alarm. A second function is to interpret RKE controller keypresses as accessory control commands. The RKE controller thereby provides a convenient accessory controller. In addition, the RKE controller may also supplement or take the place of pre-existing dedicated accessory controllers, such as controllers for a radio, video game, or DVD player, to relieve the burden of locating and operating those accessory controllers.
