Remotes

Most seat arona key 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

The number of car thefts began to decline as car immobilisers became increasingly popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However criminals are always on the lookout for ways to get around security systems. The early immobilisers could be avoided by using a scanner to find the code on the chip and copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves have had to come up new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means that they've been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organisation is the grading and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, including car immobilisers.

If the Thatcham approved immobiliser is activated, it will send a coded signal the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting until the key that is required is present. If the vehicle is "hot-wired" following entry it will stop the engine in about 30 seconds and prevent it from being able to start.

Of course, just like computers, immobilisers can be affected and the internal battery or the key fob could need to be replaced. The best option is to always hire a professional to do the task, since this will ensure that everything is installed correctly and that it functions.

Transponders

Transponders transmit an identifying signal when it is being probed. It is used to identify the aircraft to air traffic control when it is on a radar system, and helps maintain separation between planes. The information that is transmitted by the transponder varies depending on the type of system that is used.

Transponders can also be found on spacecrafts and satellites, allowing them to connect with Earth systems such as cell phone networks and other networks of communication. These devices receive signals in a variety frequencies, and then transmit them on a different frequency, just like repeaters function in terrestrial cell phone networks.

Sophisticated passive transponders are often located on aircrafts. They are utilized to monitor the status of the flight and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft's location, speed, altitude, and route. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders control routes and ensure safety.

Many personal keys contain a transponder chip in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips don't require batteries and are passive. This lets the ECU to read the signal from the transponder when it's placed in the ignition lock.

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