Abstract
This invention relates to a control system for use on an automotive vehicle in conjunction with a valve in the vehicle's hydraulic brake system to control certain aspects of the braking operation. Preferably, the present control system insures that the brakes will be locked to prevent the vehicle from creeping forward after being braked to a stop, such as at a stop light. Also, the present control system preferably insures that the brakes will be locked after the engine has been turned off, so as to prevent the car from being stolen.
