Abstract
This invention relates to a selectively operable control system for use on an automotive vehicle to insure that the brakes of the vehicle will be locked after the engine has been turned off so as to prevent the vehicle from being stolen. The system includes a valve with a bidirectional motor and a control circuit for bidirectionally energizing the motor. The valve is established in an open position for normal braking only when an electronic key is inserted in a receptacle, and in a closed anti-theft position having check valve characteristics when the key is not inserted.
