Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are small circuits in your key that communicate with your car's immobilizer. When the key is turned on, the chip transmits an identification code to the Body Control Module (BCM) of the vehicle. If the ID code matches that in the BCM's memory, then the immobilizer is disabled and your engine starts. If https://www.g28carkeys.co.uk/fiat-car-key-replacements-near-me/ doesn't match, the security light will come on and the car will not start.

A BMW smart key, for instance it has a tiny LCD touchscreen in color that performs the standard functions of a normal key fob (locking in, unlocking and keyless start) It also gives the option to store personal driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs and also command your car to self-park from within the key.
