Keyless Entry
Keyless entry lets you unlock and start your car without needing to insert a key in the lock. This system makes use of radio waves that are emitted by the vehicle, and a keyfob that seeks the signals. If the key fob is within range of the radio signals, it sends a code back to unlock the door and disables the your vehicle's standard immobiliser which is located in the engine control module (ECU).
Certain systems also include remote ignition that allows you to start your car with the key fob or a button on the dash panel. This feature could be extremely useful if you have to run out to get groceries or if your keys are locked in the car.

If this doesn't help you, you might need to bring your vehicle to an expert locksmith or dealer to program the keyfob.
Immobiliser
The Immobiliser (or engine Immobiliser) is an built-in anti-theft device that stops your car from starting without an ignition key. It works by matching the digital code on the key or fob with the unique code in your vehicle's ECU. When the codes are in sync the ECU will trigger the fuel system and ignition. If the codes do not match then your car will not start when the fuel pump or ignition circuit is blocked.
The Immobiliser is effective in preventing thieves from hot wiring or re-starting your vehicle however it's not 100% secure. The most determined criminals are able to defeat it. This is why it's crucial to keep other sensible precautions, such as keeping valuables out of sight and avoiding leaving them in the vehicle when you're not in it.
Another option for security is to use a faraday bag, which will block the signal between the key fob and the car's electronics and make it more difficult for criminals to intercept and replicate the signal. Suzuki's latest models come with a second measure of security which requires that the key be placed close to the ignition when it is switched on.
Going Here are vulnerable to attack by criminals with advanced capabilities despite these measures. In one study that was conducted by researcher Jaap Bokslag tried to steal three cars of a popular brand and crack the immobiliser within six minutes using known weaknesses in the system.
Security System
Suzukis are among the most popular cars on Australian roads. They are equipped with a factory-installed immobiliser to keep them from being hot-wired. The key is equipped with tiny transponder chips about the size of one PS1 penny, that transmits an individual code to electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. If the ECU isn't able to receive this code when you insert the key into the ignition barrel, the car will not start.
Suzuki dealers used two different dealer-installed systems up to the year 1996. The first was manufactured by Advance Security. The original keyfob that came with this model had the Suzuki brand on the front and FCC ID B23AT54 on the back. The original keyfob is no more available, but Remotes Unlimited offers a two-button Hellfire Remote (also manufactured by Advance Security).
After 2000 the new Suzukis are equipped with a key-lock feature that is installed by the factory. This system has an immobiliser that is built into. The key is equipped with a tiny transponder chip hidden under a plastic head. The chip contains a complex code that the vehicle's ECU looks for when you turn the key in the ignition barrel. If the chip in the new key isn't compatible with the one in the ECU it won't start. The issue can be a bit tricky to repair however our Auckland auto locksmiths are able to fix it swiftly and easily.
Keys
Most Suzukis are equipped with a key which has a microchip inside (transponder chip), which is smaller than a coin in your pocket. When you insert the key into the ignition barrel of your vehicle, the ECU reads the code from the chip. If it does not match, your vehicle will not start. If you lose your key and don't have a spare you will require an auto locksmith who has the appropriate equipment to replace it.
