They will also be equipped to assist you in the programming of any new keys.

Remotes

Most Seat 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 theft rate of cars began to decrease as car immobilisers became increasingly popular in the late 1990s. However, thieves are always on the lookout for ways to bypass security systems. The initial immobilisers were avoided by using a scanner to find the chip's code and then copying it onto the blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves have had to come up new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Fortunately, the majority of immobilisers we sell and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organization is responsible for the grading system and approval of automotive aftermarket security and alarm devices, including car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved immobiliser device is activated it will send a coded message to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from running until the correct key is in place. This means that if the car is "hot wired" after entry it will stop working within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.

Like any computer, the immobiliser may develop issues. Sometimes, the battery or key fob may require replacement. The best option is always to hire a professional to carry out the task, since this will ensure that everything is fitted properly and functions.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument that sends back an identifying signal when interrogated. This helps maintain separation between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is operating a radar system. The information that is transmitted by the transponder can differ based on the kind of system used.

Transponders are also utilized in satellites and space vehicles to connect with Earth-based systems, like cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at different frequency and then retransmit signals using a different spectrum similar to how repeaters in cell phone networks operate.

Often sophisticated transponders with sophisticated technology can be located on aircraft. They are used to monitor the status of flight and provide navigation information such as the aircraft's position speed, altitude, speed and route. Transponders provide information that air traffic controllers can make use of to manage flight routes, and also ensure security.

Many personal keys contain transponder chips, as well as aircraft transponders. These chips do not require batteries and are completely passive. This allows the ECU read the signal from the transponder when it's inserted in the ignition lock.

Most airplanes have a switch on the flight deck that enables pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also select a "ident" mode that lets the transponder's unique squawk code and helps it stand out in a busy air-traffic control screen.
