They will also be able to help you with the programming of any new keys.

Remotes

Most seat leon replacement key cost 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 key's circuit.

Immobilisers

The amount of thefts from cars began to decline when car immobilisers began to become popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However criminals are always looking for ways to evade security systems. They were able to sneak through the early immobiliser systems employing a scanner to locate the transponder's code chip and then copying it to a blank key, but since then, technology has advanced and they've been forced to come up with new tricks.

Fortunately the majority of the immobilisers that we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means they've been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is the grading and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security equipment, including car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved system is activated it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle. This will stop the engine from starting if it does not have the proper key. This means that if the car is "hot wired" following entry, the engine will stop working within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.

Like any computer, the immobiliser may be prone to problems. Sometimes, the internal battery or key fob will need to be replaced. It is best to have professionals handle the task and ensure that everything is properly installed and is working.

Transponders

A transponder sends an identification signal to the receiver when it is probed. This allows for the separation between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is using an active radar system. The information used to identify the aircraft transmitted by the transponder differs based on the type of system used.

Transponders are also employed in space vehicles and satellites to connect with Earth-based systems such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at various frequencies and then retransmit the signals in a different frequency, similar to how repeaters on land-based cell phone networks function.

Transponders with sophisticated technology are commonly used on aircrafts. They are used to monitor the status of flight and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft's location and speed, altitude, and the route. Air traffic controllers use the information from these transponders to control flight routes and ensure safety.

In addition to transponders for aircraft, a lot of personal keys have a small transponder. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to detect the transponder signal once it is placed in the ignition lock.

The flight deck of many aircrafts has a switch that pilots can activate to switch their transponders on or off. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk coding and help it stand out on a busy air traffic control screens.
