The rubber seals on the key fob shield the electronic chip from water. However long-term exposure to soapy water or salty water may cause the chip to fail. If your key fob is exposed to water, you must remove the battery and allow it to dry completely before putting it back into. The Keylab can also clean the electronic chip by using isopropyl or an electronic cleaner.
The keyless entry system is more secure than conventional systems, since it generates the code used to unlock your car after each use. This means that even if hackers intercept the signal it isn't possible for them to gain permanent access to your vehicle.
Transponders
Fiat uses a crypto-key transponder system which means that keys and transponders have to be precoded by the Body Control Module before they are "programmed" by the BCM. A blank key that isn't programmed cannot be programmed because the BCM must read and write its secret key to the transponder before locking it. This is referred to as cloning.
