Abstract
A remote lock control apparatus for unlocking of a locking mechanism for disabling running of a vehicle and allowing an engine of the vehicle to be started, when the power of the vehicle battery has been consumed. An ID code collation means successively executes a first step of performing collation of an ID code in response to operation of a kick starting mechanism for the first time and outputting, when the ID code exhibits coincidence, a collation coincidence signal to collation result holding means. This is followed by a second step of controlling operation of actuator driving means so that a handle lock mechanism may be placed into an unlocking state in response operation of the kick starting mechanism for the second time while the collation coincidence holding signal continues to be outputted from the collation result holding means and outputting a collation coincidence signal. Finally, a third step of controlling operation of main relay driving means so that a main relay may be placed into an on state in response to operation of the kick starting mechanism for the third time while the collation coincidence holding signal continues to be outputted from the collation result holding means.
