Transponder Keys

Transponder keys that are a combination of "transmitter" & "responder" and are used to protect against auto-theft by sending a distinct radio signal to the immobilizer system in the car when inserted into the ignition. This signal is activated when keys are within range of the vehicle and only works with the specific car. It also contains a microchip with a digital serial number, which makes it difficult for thieves to duplicate your car keys or use stolen keys.

The chips can't be read by scanners, which is why you'll need to call a locksmith to replace your transponder key in case you've lost it. The average locksmith doesn't have the tools needed to program a transponder. In some cases the chip may also need to be replaced, but this could be more time-consuming, and a lot more complicated than making a key using a standard blade.

They are more difficult to duplicate than remote keys and can only be copied using the scanner specially designed for this kind of key. In addition, they work with the majority of automobile immobilizer systems. This could make it difficult for a thief to connect a hot wire to the vehicle and then drive away.

Keyless Entry Remotes

Many cars have keyless entry systems, which allow owners to unlock their vehicle without the need to insert keys to the car. Typically, this is done using a door-mounted keypad, the key fob (or "keychain remote"), or a wirelessly-enabled handheld computing device that connects to the car's security system. These devices can be used to lock or unlock the car, turn off the ignition, and turn on the lighting of the vehicle.

Keyless entry relies upon the transmitter in the fob communicating with the receiver in the vehicle by way of an individual code. As a result, it's important to have your fob updated when you have new keys made or you need to replace a battery in the fob you have or you lose your key fob.
