Transponder Keys
Transponder keys generally have a microchip embedded in them that sends a unique digital code to the vehicle. The code is matched to the specific serial number in the car's computer system. The car will not start unless this match is made. This is a wonderful technology that has greatly reduced the number of car thefts.
This amazing technology can be found in most cars built in the last 20 years. If you have an older vehicle it is possible to make transponder keys. Beishir Lock and Security will cut keys and programme the chip at only a fraction of the cost of a dealership.
This technology was designed to reduce car theft. Before for beginners , thieves would connect two wires on the ignition switch of the car to turn it on. Transponder technology prevents this since the vehicle won't start if does not receive the correct code from the immobilizer system.
Another benefit of the chip is that it can be used to open trunks and doors without the need for a button. These "smart" Audi fobs have proximity sensors that are activated when the owner is within only a few feet from the vehicle. The sensor will send an alert to the vehicle to allow the doors and trunk to unlock and open.
One downside of the transponder system is that it can be difficult to detect problems. A damaged battery is usually the reason for the key not turning in the ignition. You can replace the battery with a basic DIY kit but most people prefer having a professional do this for them. They can make sure that the job is done quickly and accurately.
It is recommended to use a mobile locksmith if you need to replace a transponder. This is because these companies will come to you and make the new key while you wait. This is much more convenient than having to go to the dealer and waiting to have your vehicle tow.
