Keys

Lost car keys are a frequent occurrence and can be a major hassle. However the process of getting a new one from a dealer could be expensive. UK Auto Locksmiths can offer an alternative that is less expensive and they will have the latest software and equipment to help you out. All you will need is a VIN number and proof of ownership to permit them to carry out the work. The other information they need is the type of key you require. They can provide flip keys, remotes and even Fobs. They can also help you programme any new keys.

Remotes

Most Seat 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

As car immobilisers became popular in the last decade, car theft rates began to drop, however thieves are smart and always searching for ways to bypass security systems. They were able to get into early immobiliser systems using a scanner tool to find the transponder's chip, and then copying it to a blank key, but since then technology has advanced and they've had to come up with new tricks.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means they've been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organisation is the system of grading and approval for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, which includes car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved system is activated it will send a signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle that prevents the engine from starting without the proper key. If the vehicle is "hot-wired" upon entry and it stops the engine in about 30 seconds and make it impossible for it to start.

As with computers, the immobiliser may be affected and the internal battery or key fob might need to be replaced. The best thing to do is to always hire a professional to do the work, as it will ensure that everything is fitted correctly and that it works.

Transponders

A transponder transmits an identifying signal when it is being probed. This helps keep a distinct line between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is using an active radar system. The information sent back by the transponder varies depending on the type of system used.

Transponders are also employed in space vehicles and satellites to communicate with Earth-based systems, like cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at various frequencies and then retransmit the signals using a different spectrum similar to how repeaters in cell phone networks work.

Often, sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide information about navigation like the aircraft's position along with speed and altitude. Transponders are able to provide information that air traffic controllers utilize to control flight paths, and also ensure safety.

A lot of personal keys have transponder chips, as well as aircraft transponders. The chips are passive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU read the signal from the transponder when it is put into the ignition lock.

The flight deck of the majority of airplanes contains a switch that pilots can turn their transponders on or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to transmit its unique squawk number and help it stand out on a busy air traffic control screen.
