It is important to know the information that you will have to give a locksmith if you need to replace the Fiat vehicle key. They will ask you for the year and model of your Fiat. They will also want to know whether you require the remote key or a standard key. In most instances, you can talk to a locksmith over the phone which type of Fiat key is needed.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits embedded into your key and communicate with the immobilizer. When you turn the key in the ignition the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If that ID code matches that stored in the BCM's memory the immobilizer is deactivated and the engine will start. If the ID code isn't compatible the security light will come on and the car won't start.

Transponders aren't completely invincible but, as car thieves have evolved over time to come up with ways of bypassing security systems to prevent theft. A spare key with an active transponder can aid in stopping this.

Smart Keys

Smart keys aren't just an awesome convenience, they also make it more difficult for thieves to steal your car. Instead of sending out the same frequency signal as traditional key fobs, smart keys broadcast different encrypted signals each time they unlock doors or remotely open the trunk. A computer inside your vehicle then detects these different frequencies and allows it to begin if the correct key is in line with the new signal.

A BMW smart key, for instance features a small LCD color touchscreen on it that can perform the basic functions of a regular key fob (locking and unlocking, as well as keyless start) however, it also gives you the capability to save personal driver settings, turn off sunroofs or windows, and also command your car to self park inside the key. These types of features make smart keys stand apart from their traditional counterparts.

Despite this additional layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys can be compromised. If someone in your vicinity is able to hear the low frequency transmissions that are sent between your smart key and your vehicle, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least attempt to) by picking up on the signals even if you're not from your car like at the gas station or in a restaurant.

The good thing is that many smart keys come with a battery backup that will kick in if your main battery dies. Many smart keys' batteries can be quickly replaced and don't typically require special tools.
