Transponder Chips Transponder chips are tiny circuits that are embedded into your key and communicate with the immobilizer. When the key is turned into the ignition the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If that ID code matches that in the BCM's memory, the immobilizer is deactivated and the engine will start. If the ID code isn't compatible the security light will be on and the vehicle will not start. Transponders don't guarantee absolute security, however, as car thieves have evolved over time to come up with ways to get around security systems to prevent theft. Having a spare key with functioning transponders can help keep this from occurring. We suggest calling us to get the price of an entirely new key with a transponder that works.

Instead of broadcasting the same frequency signal like traditional keys, smart keys send out various encrypted signals each time they unlock the door or remotely open the trunk. The computer in your car recognizes the changes in frequency and will only allow it to start when the key that you want to use matches. A BMW smart key, for example, has a small LCD touchscreen that performs the standard functions of a standard key fob (locking or unlocking and keyless start) It also gives you the capability to save individual driver settings, turn off sunroofs and windows, and even instruct your car to self park inside the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features. Smart keys aren't entirely secure. If someone in your vicinity receives the low frequency transmissions transmitted between your smart keys and your car it could allow access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to) by picking up on these signals even when you're away from your vehicle like at an eatery or gas station. The good news is that most smart keys have a backup battery that is activated if the primary battery fails. Many smart key batteries are easily replaced and don't usually require special tools.
