Keys

Lost car keys are an issue that is commonplace and can be a real problem to handle however, getting a replacement key from the dealer can be expensive. UK Auto Locksmiths will offer you a less expensive alternative and use the most modern tools and software to assist. All you will need is a VIN number and evidence of ownership to enable them to complete the task. They'll also need know the type of key that you require. They can provide flip keys, remotes and even Fobs. They can also assist you to programme any new keys.

Remotes

Most seat car key cover drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. This is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the seat key transponder programming's circuit.

Immobilisers

The amount of thefts from cars began to decrease since car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However, thieves are always looking for ways to circumvent security systems. The initial immobilisers were avoided by using a scanner to find the chip's coding and then copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has evolved and thieves are forced to think of new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Fortunately, the majority of immobilisers we sell and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organisation is responsible for the grading system and the approval of automotive aftermarket security and alarm devices, such as car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will send a signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle. This will stop the engine from starting if it does not have the correct key. This means that if the vehicle has been "hot wired" after entry, the engine will cease to function within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.

As with a computer the immobiliser can develop problems and sometimes the battery inside or the key fob may need replacing. The best option is always to hire a professional to carry out the task as it will ensure that everything is fitted properly and functions.

Transponders

Transponders are devices that transmits an identifying signal upon being questioned. This helps maintain separation between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers if it is using an active radar system. The identifying information sent back by the transponder differs based on the type of system that is used.

Transponders can also be found in spacecraft and satellites to communicate with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks, or other communication networks. These devices receive incoming signals at a variety of frequencies, and then retransmit signals on another frequency, similar to the way repeaters function in land-based cellular phone networks.

Often sophisticated passive transponders may be located on aircraft. They are used to monitor the status of the flight and provide information on navigation such as the aircraft's location speed, altitude, speed and the route. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders to manage flight paths and ensure safety.

A lot of personal keys have transponder chips in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal whenever it is put into the ignition lock.

The flight deck on most aircrafts is equipped with a switch pilots can activate to switch their transponders either on or off. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk codes and makes it stand out on a busy air-traffic control screen.
