How to Build a Cellphone Controlled Car Starter Circuit

Last Updated on February 17, 2018 by Admin 2 Comments

The submit offers a basic cellphone activated remote control circuit which can be utilized as a cellphone controlled remote car starter. The unit would certainly cost less than $20 to build.
I have already taken care of more than a few fascinating cellphone remote control circuits within this blog, most of which could be executed to manage or toggle some electrical equipment remotely utilizing ones own cell phone, exclusively.
The fundamental cellphone regulated relay circuit stage associated with all the earlier circuits may be additionally efficiently employed for beginning the ignition system of a vehicle, by means of the owners cell phone. The schematic for the same might be observed below and may understood with the following justification:

The design is essentially a transistorized audio amplifier circuit, which can be placed for amplifying the designated ringtone from the nearby cell phone modem. The cellphone demonstrated with the circuit remains completely associated with the circuit and forms the essential section of the whole program.
The diagram demonstrates a NOKIA 1280 cellphone as the modem, in spite of this any inexpensive cellphone could be raised for the reason supplied the cellphone consists of the "assign tone" benefit discretely for the specific preferred numbers.
The number of the owner or the user is first stored and assigned with an appropriate ringtone accessible within the cellphone modem to ensure that the modem replies simply to the owners phone and not to some other irrelevant numbers. The default ringtone of the modem is placed to "empty" to be able to mute all other unwanted calls.
When the owner calls the moden cellphone, the ringtone is identified by the circuit and amplified to a level adequate for the relay to get energized. The relay continues energized for as long as the call stays linked.
Considering that the relay contacts are set up or built-in with the ignition switch of the car, instantly causes the ignition method of the vehicle beginning the engine and the whole system.
A feed back from the initiated alternator ensures that the relay is immediately shut off regardless of the call duration from the owner's cellphone.
The car ignition hence has the capacity to begin without the owner or the driver needing to get inside the car and undergo the manual procedures. The car begins remotely by way of the owner's cell phone, a fail proof and a foolproof process yet as cheap as you are able to consider.

Cellphone Controlled Car Starter Circuit

Last Updated on November 17, 2024 by Admin Leave a Comment

The post presents a simple cellphone triggered remote control circuit that can be applied as a cellphone operated remote car starter. The unit would cost less than $20 to build.

I have already covered quite a few interesting cellphone remote control circuits in this blog, all of which can be implemented to control or toggle some electrical equipment remotely using ones own cell phone, exclusively.

How it Works

The basic cellphone controlled relay circuit stage involved in all the previous circuits can be also effectively utilized for starting the ignition system of a vehicle, through the owners cell phone. The schematic for the same may be witnessed below and may understood with the following explanation:

cellphonecontrolledcarstartercircuit 1024x442 1

The design is basically a transistorized audio amplifier circuit, which is positioned for amplifying the assigned ringtone from the adjoining cell phone modem. The cellphone shown with the circuit stays permanently attached with the circuit and forms the integral part of the whole system.

The diagram shows a NOKIA 1280 cellphone as the modem, however any cheap cellphone may be employed for the purpose provided the cellphone includes the "assign tone" feature discretely for the particular selected numbers.

The number of the owner or the user is first stored and assigned with a suitable ringtone available within the cellphone modem so that the modem responds only to the owners phone and not to any other irrelevant numbers. The default ringtone of the modem is set to "empty" in order to mute all other unwanted calls.

When the owner calls the modem cellphone, the ringtone is detected by the circuit and amplified to a level sufficient for the relay to get energized. The relay stays energized for so long as the call remains connected.

Configuring the Relay Contacts

Since the relay contacts are configured or integrated with the ignition switch of the car, immediately triggers the ignition system of the vehicle starting the engine and the whole system.

A feed back from the activated alternator makes sure that the relay is instantly shut off irrespective of the call duration from the owner's cellphone.

The car ignition thus is able to start without the owner or the driver having to get inside the car and go through the manual operations. The car starts remotely through the owner's cell phone, a fail proof and a foolproof procedure yet as cheap as anybody can think of.

Parts List

  • R1 = 22k
  • R2 = 220 Ohms,
  • R3 = 100K,
  • R4,R6,R7 = 4K7
  • R5 = 1K
  • R8 = 33K
  • R13 = 100 ohms,
  • T1, T2, T4, T5 = BC547
  • T3 = BC557,
