Keys

Lost car keys are an issue that is commonplace and can be a pain to deal with However, getting an exchange key from the dealer is expensive.

All you require is an VIN number and proof of ownership in order for them to carry out the work. They'll also have to be aware of the type of key that you require. They can provide remotes, flip keys and even Fobs. They can also assist you to create new keys.

Remotes

Most seat leon car key 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

When car immobilisers began to become more popular in the late nineties, car theft figures began to drop, but thieves are smart and constantly looking for ways around security systems. The initial immobilisers were avoided by scanning the chip's coding and then copying it onto a blank key. But the technology has advanced and thieves are forced to think of new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we supply and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, such as car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved immobiliser device is activated it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting until the correct key is available. If the car is "hot-wired" after entry, it will stop the engine in about 30 seconds and prevent it from being able to start.

Like all computers, the immobiliser may be prone to problems. Sometimes the internal battery or the key fob will need to be replaced. It is recommended to hire a professional do the work to ensure everything is installed correctly and functions.

Transponders

A transponder is a piece of equipment that transmits an identifying signal when it is questioned. This helps to maintain a clear line between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is operating a radar system. The information that the transponder transmits back is different according to the type of system.

Transponders are also utilized in satellites and space vehicles to communicate with Earth-based systems like cell phone networks and other networks for communication. They receive signals at various frequencies, and then transmit the signals using a different spectrum like repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks function.

Often sophisticated passive transponders may be located on aircraft. They monitor the status of flight and provide navigational information including the aircraft's position along with speed and altitude. Transponders are able to provide information that air traffic controllers make use of to manage flight routes, and also ensure safety.

In addition to transponders for aircraft Many personal keys contain a small transponder chip. These chips don't require batteries and are completely passive. This allows the ECU read the signal from the transponder when it is installed in the ignition lock.

The majority of aircrafts have a switch on the flight deck that enables pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also choose an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to transmit its unique squawk coding and help it stand out on an air traffic control screen.
