Remotes

Most seat keys replacement drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. This is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.

Immobilisers

The number of car thefts started to decline since car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However thieves are always on the lookout for ways to bypass security systems. They were able to sneak around the earlier immobiliser systems using a scanner tool to locate the transponder's chip, and then copying it to an unlocked key, but since then, technology has evolved and they've had to come up with new ways to get around them.

Fortunately, the majority of immobilisers we sell and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means they have been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for the automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, such as car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will send a coded signal the Engine Management System of the vehicle, preventing the engine from running until the correct key is in place. This means that if a car is "hot wired" following entry and the engine is cease to function within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.

As with a computer the immobiliser can develop problems and sometimes the internal battery or key fob may need replacing. The best option is always go for a professional to do the task, since this will ensure that everything is installed properly and functions.

Transponders

Transponders send an identification signal back when it is interrogated. This helps maintain separation between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers if it is operating a radar system. The information that the transponder transmits to the air traffic control system varies according to the type of system.

Transponders are also used in space vehicles and satellites to connect with Earth-based systems like cell phone networks and other networks for communication. These devices receive signals at various frequencies and then retransmit those signals in a different frequency, similar to how repeaters in cell phone networks work.

Often, sophisticated passive transponders can be found on aircraft. They are used to monitor flight status and provide information about navigation like the aircraft's location speed, altitude, speed and the route. These transponders provide data that air traffic controllers can utilize to control flight paths and also ensure security.

In addition to transponders for aircraft some personal keys come with a tiny transponder. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the signal of the transponder once it is installed in the ignition lock.

The flight deck on most aircrafts has a switch that pilots can activate to switch their transponders on or off. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder transmit its unique squawk codes and helps it stand out in a busy air-traffic control screen.
