Keys

The loss of a car's key is an issue that is common and can cause a huge trouble. However the process of getting a new one from the dealer can be expensive.

They can supply remotes, flip keys and even Fobs. They are also equipped to assist you in the programming of any new keys.

Remotes

Most seat ibiza key fob replacement 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 latter part of the 1990s. However, thieves are always on the lookout for ways to circumvent security systems. The initial immobilisers were defeated by using a scanner in order to find the code on the chip and then copying it onto the blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves are forced to think of new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Fortunately, the majority immobilisers that we supply and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means they've been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is the grading and certification system for aftermarket alarms and security devices, which includes car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will send a signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle. This will stop the engine from starting without the proper key. If the car is "hot-wired" following entry it will stop the engine within 30 seconds and make it impossible to start.

As with any computer immobiliser, the immobiliser can be prone to problems. Sometimes the internal battery or key fob might require replacement. The best thing to do is to always seek out a professional to carry out the work, as it will ensure that everything is installed properly and functions.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument that transmits an identifying signal when it is interrogated. This allows for the separation between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is operating a radar system. The identifying information sent back by the transponder is different based on the kind of system used.

Transponders can also be found in spacecraft and satellites to communicate with Earth systems such as cell phone networks and other networks of communication. These devices receive signals at a variety of frequencies, and then retransmit them at an additional frequency, similar to the way repeaters function in terrestrial cellular phone networks.

Sophisticated passive transponders are often found on aircrafts. They monitor flight status and provide information about navigation including the aircraft's position along with speed and altitude. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers use to manage flight paths and also ensure safety.

Many keys for personal use have transponder chips, in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips don't require batteries, and are therefore passive. This allows the ECU read the signal from the transponder whenever it is installed in the ignition lock.

The majority of aircrafts have a switch on the flight deck that permits pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also select an "ident" mode that lets the transponder transmit its unique squawk codes, which makes it stand out the busy air traffic control screen.
