ABSTRACT:
A vehicle warning assembly connected to the electrical system of a vehicle, to warn of unauthorized entry into the vehicle, wherein a switch is mounted on the exterior and is operable only from outside of the vehicle. The switch has three positions, one to set or energize a flasher circuit to make the interior courtesy or dome lights flash on and off in the event someone makes an unauthorized entry into the vehicle. The headlights and tail lights may also be connected in the flasher circuit, which includes means to flash certain lights on and off in alternating sequence, such as those on one side of the vehicle flashing on while those on the other side are momentarily off, then those on the first side flashing off momentarily while those on the other side flash on, and so on in such alternating sequence. A second position is to turn on the interior courtesy or dome lights, which both tests the system to see whether it is still working, and if working, it lights up the interior of the vehicle to reveal whether anyone may be hiding therein. If the interior lights do not go on when the switch is in the second position, it is an indication that someone may have tampered with the system, may have gained entry, and may be hiding inside. The third position turns the system off and opens the warning circuit until it is desired to use again.
