Transponders are a small circuit that is embedded into your car keys. This chip has a unique code that is programmed to match the immobiliser of your car's system. This ensures only the correct key is used to start your car.

The chip also transmits a code when you press the unlock button on your key fob. If you lose your transponder keys, it has to be replaced.

A key fob is a device that consists of a computer chip and a metal shell. When the fob is placed near an reader, the copper coils located on both sides of it are energized and transform the radio frequency signal into electricity. This power then flows to the microcomputer in the fob. It then transmits a unique number that acts as your identity card.

The key fob is then presented to the reader so that it can be matched with the number stored in its memory. This is referred to as "key matching" and is utilized by the security system in the vehicle to verify that you are the authorized owner of the vehicle. When the keys are matched and the reader is able to start the car and unlock the doors.
