Information About Vehicle Transponder Keys
You may never have given much thought to your vehicle’s keys. After all, a car key is a car key, right? That’s actually not so. There are many types of vehicle keys involved with vehicles on the road today. While many manufacturers have turned to keyless entry systems as technology has evolved, many cars are still opened and operated using keys. These keys may be transponder chip keys, VAT (vehicle anti-theft) keys, or smart keys. So what’s the difference and why does it matter?
Transponder keys are so named because of the electronic chip each one has. Transponder stands for “transmitter” and “responder”. When you insert your transponder key in your ignition lock, the chip activates and sends a signal to your vehicle’s computer. If the computer’s code matches the one sent by the key, then the engine’s immobilizer will disengage and the vehicle will start up. If not, then the vehicle will stay turned off. Transponder chips are important because they provide a strong level of security against criminals. This also makes them more difficult to duplicate than traditional keys, which is why you need a locksmith like those employed by our Federal Way locksmith team to help you.
