Transponder Keys
Transponder keys are a mix of "transmitter" & "responder" They are used to stop auto-theft by delivering a unique radio signal to the immobilizer of the car when they are inserted into the ignition. This signal is activated when keys are within the range of the vehicle and is unique to that vehicle. It also contains an electronic chip that has a serial number, which makes it difficult for thieves to duplicate your car keys or to use stolen keys.
The chips can't be read by scanners, and you will need to contact a locksmith to replace your transponder key in case you've lost it. The procedure of programming a transponder chip requires specialized tools that an average car locksmith doesn't have. In certain cases the chip has to be replaced as well, but this is more complex and takes longer than simply making the new key using a standard keyblade.
A transponder key can offer an extra layer to security, and help prevent your vehicle from being stolen. They are much more difficult to duplicate than remote keys and are only copied by a scanner that has been designed for this kind of key. They also work with most vehicles' immobilizers, which makes it difficult for thieves using the vehicle's hot-wire to drive away.
Keyless Entry Remotes
Many cars now come with keyless entry systems that permit the driver to unlock the car without having to insert a key. This is typically done using a keypad mounted on the door or a keychain remote (or "keychain"), or wirelessly-enabled handheld computing devices that communicate directly with the car system. These devices can also be used to lock and unlock the vehicle as well as turn on the ignition, or switch on the vehicle's lights.
The keyless entry system depends on the transmitter inside the fob and the receiver in the car to communicate via a special code that's unique to each vehicle. This is why it is important to get your fob programmed if you have new keys made, need to replace a battery in the fob you have, or lose your key fob.
It's important to be careful when ordering a replacement key fob online, as some sellers won't ask you for proof of ownership. They may send the wrong key or even an empty shell. You can avoid these problems by having your key fob reprogrammed by an authorized dealer in the automotive industry or locksmith.
