Remotes

Most Seat drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement seat car key 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 seat key 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

As car immobilisers became popular in the latter part of the nineties, car theft rates began to fall, but thieves are savvy and always looking for ways around security systems. The initial immobilisers were bypassed by using a scanner in order to find the code on the chip and then copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves have to devise new tricks.

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

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

Like a computer the immobiliser can have issues and occasionally the internal battery or the key fob could require replacement. It is best to hire professionals handle the task to ensure everything is installed correctly and functions.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument that transmits an identifying signal upon being questioned. This helps maintain separation between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers if it is using an active radar system. The information that is transmitted by the transponder differs based on the kind of system used.

Transponders are also found in spacecraft and satellites to connect with Earth systems like cell phone networks, or other communication networks. They receive signals at a variety of frequencies, and then retransmit them on a different frequency, just like repeaters work in land-based cellular phone networks.

Often sophisticated transponders with sophisticated technology can be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information including the aircraft's position, speed and altitude. Transponders are able to provide information that air traffic controllers use to manage flight paths, and ensure safety.

A lot of personal keys have a transponder chip in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips do not require batteries and are passive. This allows the ECU to read the signal from the transponder whenever it is installed in the ignition lock.

Most airplanes have a switch on the flight deck that permits pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also choose an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder's unique squawk number and help it stand out on an air traffic control screen.
