Abstract
A vehicle control system for a vehicle may include a radio frequency (RF) assembly including an RF assembly housing to be positioned within the vehicle, an antenna carried by the RF assembly housing, an RF receiver carried by the RF assembly housing, and a motion sensor carried by the RF assembly housing. The system may further include a controller assembly including a controller assembly housing to be positioned within the vehicle spaced apart from the RF assembly, and a controller carried by the controller housing. The controller may perform at least one first operation responsive to RF signals received by the RF receiver from a remote transmitter, and perform at least one second operation responsive to the motion sensor.
