Remotes
Most seat car keys 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.

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 decrease as car immobilisers became popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However the criminals are always on the lookout for ways to circumvent security systems. The first immobilisers could be bypassed by using a scanner in order to find the chip's code and then copying it onto the blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves are forced to think of new methods to get around security systems.
Luckily, the majority of immobilisers that we supply and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means they have been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organisation is the grading system and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, including car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved immobiliser is activated, it will send a coded message to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting unless the correct key is in place. If the vehicle is "hot-wired" following entry it will stop the engine in about 30 seconds and make it impossible for it to start.
As with any computer immobiliser, the immobiliser can develop problems. Sometimes, the internal battery or key fob may require replacement. The best option is to always seek out an expert to complete the task, since this will ensure that everything is installed correctly and that it works.
Transponders
A transponder is an instrument that transmits an identifying signal when it is questioned. It identifies the aircraft to air traffic control if it is in an active radar system, and helps maintain separation between planes. The information that the transponder transmits back is different according to the kind of system.
Transponders are also employed in space vehicles and satellites to connect with Earth-based systems such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at a range frequencies and then retransmit those signals on a different spectrum, similar to how repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks function.
Advanced passive transponders can be located on aircrafts. They are used to monitor the status of flight and provide information on navigation like the aircraft's position and speed, altitude, and the route. Air traffic controllers utilize the data from these transponders in order to control flight routes and ensure safety.
In addition to aircraft transponders some personal keys come with a tiny transponder. These chips do not require batteries and are completely passive. This lets the ECU to read the signal of the transponder whenever it is inserted in the ignition lock.
The flight deck on most airplanes contains a switch that pilots can turn their transponders off or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk code and help it stand out on an air traffic control screen.
