Keys Replacement

The keys have a microchip in them that is programmed for your specific vehicle's system to identify and communicate with the vehicle. This allows the car to know that it is the correct key and the driver has authority to operate it. If your key is lost, you may have to pay a large amount to get an replacement from the dealer. But, there is an alternative: an aftermarket key from a third party company. These keys are less expensive than those from the dealer and are available online.

Transponder Keys

Most car keys are equipped with a transponder, which means they communicate with the vehicle through radio frequency. This is a safer and more secure option than non-transponder keys, which don't have this feature and are harder to duplicate.

A transponder or miniaturized electronic key, is a programmable chip (actually a set of windings akin to those used in an electric motor). The engine control unit transmits an alert to your chip when you insert the original transponder into ignition. The chip then transmits a code that matches the immobilizer on your car and disarms it, so only your key will be able to start it.

Transponder chips are included in most newer vehicles and are designed to stop car theft, especially from thieves who are old-fashioned or amateur who usually employ brutal force and a 'hot wire' approach. But, it's important to be aware that nothing is foolproof and criminals have been working on ways to overcome this technology.

The cost to replace the transponder key will vary dependent on the year, model, and manufacturer of your vehicle. It may cost more than a standard metal key, but the added security is worth the cost. Generally, you can get transponder keys cut at all locksmiths as well as some local stores like AutoZone or Walmart.

Keyless Entry Remotes

A faulty receiver module, or signal interference could cause the issue. In some cases it can assist in resetting the onboard computers by disconnecting the battery with 12 volts for a few minutes. The negative cable must be taken off first, then the positive cable. It is also a good idea to disconnect any electrical devices that are not being used.
