Transponder Chip Keys

If your car was made in the past 20 years then it will have a transponder embedded into its plastic head. While it might seem like an insignificant piece of hardware, it is a very essential component of your vehicle's security system since it stops theft by stopping people from starting your vehicle.

It operates by sending a radio frequency signal each time you insert your key into the ignition. The microchip in your key will respond with a unique code which the immobilizer of your vehicle can read. The immobilizer will only allow the car to start if the right key has been used.

Except for a few cars, the majority of modern cars use them. They are more secure than old-fashioned keys made of metal since they prevent an experienced and determined car thief from using a hotwire or another method to start the vehicle.

Regardless of whether your transponder chip key is a blade type that has to be inserted into the cylinder for ignition or one that can be kept in your pocket via the remote fob it must be cloned by a qualified locksmith using specialized equipment before it is functional. Many car dealerships provide this service, however you will usually get the best price with an independent automotive locksmith.

Remote Fob Keys

The key fob in your car (or RKE device, remote keyless entry, or the plastic thingamajig that unlocks your door) might appear to be an uninteresting little piece of technology, but it's got more than one, boring function. Fobs can open windows or summon your car and even park it for you in places that are difficult to park (if the vehicle is equipped with this feature, as offered by a few BMWs).

The latest fobs have been designed to be tough, with a “Panic” button that can be pressed to create loud noises that scare away people who may be trying to steal the car. It is also possible to send GPS coordinates or to call emergency services. If you're not already it is recommended to purchase an extra key or fob. Some auto-insurance policies and extended warranty coverage and club memberships cover the cost of a replacement key or fob.

In most cases, you can order an entirely new fob from a dealer, and it's often cheaper to purchase it through the parts department rather than the service department. Dealers won't program a second-hand key fob for your vehicle unless you can provide proof of ownership and registration. You can get a working fob programmed through an locksmith. However, online websites that advertise the service require that you have a code for your key on a metal plaque attached to the fob. It must be stored in a secure location (like your glovebox). Find the key code in your owner's guide or dealer and make use of a small screwdriver to open the fob's case.

Keyless Entry Keys

A majority of new cars come with keyless entry as a standard feature. The key fob of the car usually has buttons for locking or unlocking, as well as opening the trunk or rolling down windows. Other security features can be added, such as the security feature that stops the car from being started by anyone other than the owner. A tracking device may aid in deterring thieves in the event of theft.

While keyless entry is a convenient option, there are things that can go wrong with it just like any other piece of equipment or car accessory of machinery. The battery may fail, the key fob can be lost, or may be damaged if you drop it on the floor. These problems aren't easy to fix since the key fob is made of electronic components, not metal components.

Repair of the ignition cylinder

The ignition cylinders play an essential component of the security system in modern automobiles. The system will ensure that your car will only run only if you insert the right key and turn it. The engine won't start when the key isn't inserted correctly. Your vehicle will also be locked. This feature is useful in reducing the possibility of theft, but it could also be problematic if your ignition isn't working correctly.

If your car isn't starting, or if you're having to play with the key for a long time before it can engage, this can indicate that there is a problem with your ignition cylinder. It's time to replace it if this happens.

To get rid of the old cylinder you will need to remove the plastic cover on the steering wheel. The procedure will differ from car to car however, generally speaking, you'll require a screwdriver for depressing the tab that holds the cylinder in place and then simply move the cylinder out.

You'll need to then replace the cylinder and reassemble your steering wheel. This isn't a daunting task, but it does require some mechanical know-how. You may want to employ an expert if you're not confident in doing this work. They will have all the tools and experience needed to perform the task properly.
