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
The number of car thefts began to decrease when car immobilisers began to become popular in the late 1990s. However, thieves are always looking for ways to circumvent security systems. They were able to sneak into early immobiliser systems using a scanner tool to find the code on the transponder chip and then copying it to the blank key, however since then technology has advanced and they've been forced to come up with new methods.
Fortunately the majority of the immobilisers we sell and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means that they've been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organization is the system of grading and approval for the automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, which includes car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved system is activated it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle. This will stop the engine from starting if it does not have the proper key. This means that if the car has been "hot wired" following entry and the engine is cease to function within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.
Like an electronic device, the immobiliser could be affected and the internal battery or the key fob could need to be replaced. It is recommended to have an expert do the work, as they will make sure that everything is installed correctly and functions.
Transponders
A transponder is a device that sends back an identifying signal upon being questioned. It identifies the aircraft to air traffic control when it is on a radar system and helps maintain separation between airplanes. The information that is transmitted by the transponder is different based on the type of system that is used.
Transponders can also be found in spacecrafts and satellites to communicate with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks and other networks of communication. They receive signals in a variety frequencies, and then transmit them at another frequency, similar to how repeaters function in terrestrial cell phone networks.
Often sophisticated passive transponders can be found on aircraft. They monitor the status of flight and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft's location, speed and altitude. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers use to manage flight paths and also ensure safety.
In addition to transponders for aircraft Many personal keys contain a small transponder chip. These chips do not require batteries and are purely passive. This lets the ECU to read the signal of the transponder when it is put into the ignition lock.
The flight deck of most airplanes contains a switch that pilots can use to switch their transponders either on or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk code, which helps it stand out on a busy air traffic control screens.
