When a vehicle is not in a motive mode, a controller may monitor operator input entered via vehicle controls that have functions other than access control, and enable the vehicle to transition to the motive mode if the operator input matches a predetermined vehicle-enable action sequence. The controller may also, responsive to operator input requesting to record the vehicle-enable action sequence, construct a vehicle-enable action sequence according to subsequent operator input entered by the operator via the vehicle controls; and apply the vehicle-enable action sequence as a requirement to be repeated by a vehicle operator to enable transition to motive mode.
