Remotes

Most seat exeo key programming drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement key for seat ibiza 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

When car immobilisers began to become more popular in the late nineties, car theft figures began to fall, but thieves are always searching for ways to bypass security systems. The initial immobilisers were bypassed by using a scanner to find the chip's code and copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves are forced to think of new ways to get around security systems.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we supply and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organisation is responsible for the grading system, as well as the approval of aftermarket security devices for automobiles and alarm devices, including car immobilisers.

If the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will send a coded signal the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which stops the engine from starting unless the correct key is available. If the vehicle is "hot-wired" upon entry it will stop the engine after 30 seconds and will make it impossible to start.

Of course, just like computers, immobilisers can develop issues, and sometimes the battery in the interior or the key fob could need to be replaced. The best option is to always seek out an expert to complete the work, as this will ensure that everything is fitted properly and functions.

Transponders

Transponders send an identifying signal back when it is questioned. It is used to identify the aircraft to air traffic control when it is on a radar system and helps to maintain the separation between aircrafts. The information used to identify the aircraft transmitted by the transponder varies depending on the type of system used.

Transponders can also be found in satellites and spacecraft to communicate with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks and other networks for communication. These devices receive signals at different frequencies and then retransmit the signals using a different spectrum like repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks operate.

Often sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They monitor the status of flight and provide navigational information including the aircraft's position, speed and altitude. Transponders are able to provide information that air traffic controllers can use to manage flight paths, and also ensure safety.

Many keys for personal use have transponder chips in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips don't require batteries and are passive. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal whenever it is installed into the ignition lock.

The flight deck on most aircrafts is equipped with a switch pilots can activate to switch their transponders either on or off. They can also select a "ident" mode that lets the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk codes and makes it stand out on an air-traffic control panel that is busy.
