A car remote control system utilizing a signal in the form of electromagnetic wave or infrared ray called `keyless entry`. When receiving a predetermined wake-up signal, an MPU is once operated even when the received input signal is a noise signal to perform only judging operation of whether or not the input signal is normal. Only when judging that the input signal is a normal wake-up signal, the MPU controllably causes an electronic circuit to be shifted to a usual operation mode. When judging that the input signal is the noise signal prior to full input of the tuner signal, the MPU immediately shifts to a sleep mode. Thereby current consumption of an electronic control circuit can be suppressed.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A car electronic control system comprising:a microcomputer having a function of switching between a sleep mode in which oscillation is stopped and an operational mode to be shifted from the sleep mode to the operational mode by at least one external input signal;at least one first power supply circuit for supplying power continuously; andat least one second power supply circuit for enabling to stop power supply on the basis of a signal received from the microcomputer,wherein said second power supply circuit is stopped when the microcomputer shifts to the sleep mode, the microcomputer is shifted to the operational mode when the input signal varies in the sleep mode to judge whether the input signal is normal or abnormal prior to starting usual operation, the microcomputer outputs a signal for starting the power supply of said second power supply circuit to start the usual operation when judging that the input signal is normal while the microcomputer stops the power supply of the second power supply circuit and shifts to the sleep mode when judging that the input signal is abnormal.
